TROY, Ala. – Troy track and field athlete Michael Alvernaz has been named the men's Sun Belt Field Athlete of the Week, the league office announced Wednesday. This marks the second time in Alvernaz's career, and first time since 2018, that he has received the honor.
"Michael has been very consistent this season," director Marc Davis said. "You always know he'll be in the hunt for a top spot every week. I'm really looking forward to where he goes from here on out."
The senior thrower placed first in the men's weight throw Saturday at the Samford Invitational with a toss of 20.
