Track and Field: Washington named Freshman-of-the-Year

May 31, 2008

Spokane, WA – Saint Martin’s Sam Washington was named as the Great Northwest Athletic Conference Male Track and Field Freshman-of-the-Year.

Washington, from Lincoln High School in Tacoma, WA, placed seventh in the national meet with the second longest shot put throw in GNAC history at 54’10”, a new school record. He also won the shot and took second in the discus at the conference meet.

“Sam's great track and field season ends with this great accolade from GNAC. When you think of the number of new freshman at every school in the conference for both track and field events and to come out on top, voted by the other coaches in GNAC, this is fantastic,” said head coach Julie Sullivan.
