After setting not one but two program records in the men's track & field program's second meet of the season, freshman thrower Nathan Quaye has been named this week’s Fuddruckers Male Athlete of the Week.

Quaye joined his teammates at the Joe Donahue Games hosted by Northeastern over the weekend, competing against some of the region's best. Quaye proved he belonged, winning the meet shot put at 14.55m, setting a new program record after passing his record set last week. Quaye also smashed the school record in the weight throw at 15.45 for the best freshman finish in the event.

Merrimack will now be off until the second week of January, which will see the team compete in various meets across the region including the Spartan Regionals in New York and the both the Harvard Multi-Meet and an event hosted by Brandeis. All three events occur from Jan. 10-11, 2020.
