 The Great Lakes Valey Conference selected University of Southern Indiana junior Austin Nolan as this week’s Men’s Track Athlete of the Week award recipient, announced by the league office Wednesday afternoon.

The three-time All-GLVC track and field selection was given the nod for this week’s recognition after posting a NCAA II provisional qualifying time of 8:16.14 in the 3000-meter at the Gladstein Invitational, hosted by Indiana University.

Saturday’s time popped the Evansville-native up to second in the GLVC and 13th in all of NCAA II this season, seventh all-time for the Screaming Eagles in the 3000m. This is Nolan’s first GLVC Track Athlete of the Week award, the third for USI Men’s Track and Field already this indoor season.

The Eagles gear up this week for the Greyhound Invitational Saturday at the University of Indianapolis. Competition begins 11 a.m. (CT).
