NEW ORLEANS, La. (3/2/16) – Arkansas State University’s Roelf Pienaar is now a two-time recipient of the Sun Belt Conference Men’s Most Outstanding Indoor Field Athlete Award after being selected by the league’s coaches in an announcement made Wednesday by the league office.
“Roelf has been a great athlete for us,” said A-State head coach Jim Patchell. “We are certainly pleased that he has been named indoor field athlete of the year.”
Pienaar, a junior, took home his seventh individual championship by winning the triple jump last week at the 2016 SBC Indoor Championships. Pienaar posted a leap of 15.
