BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – Bowling Green State University track & field student-athlete Kaila Butler was named the MAC Female Scholar-Athlete of the Week, as announced by the Mid-American Conference on Wednesday (March 30).
Butler (Port Coquitlam, B.C.) posted a personal best in the hammer throw, with a throw of 67.28m at the Raleigh Relays. That throw is the best in the MAC and the sixth-best in the nation thus far this season. It is also the sixth-farthest throw in program history, and only former BGSU athlete (and multi-time All-American) Brooke Pleger has a farther hammer toss.
