BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The Patriot League announced its weekly track and field honors on Tuesday afternoon, and Navy senior Clayton Thompson (Corpus Christi, Texas) was selected as the PL Men's Track Athlete of the Week. Thompson won three events at the Navy Spring Invitational, clocking three IC4A qualifying times, including a pair of NCAA Division I top 30 times.
 
In the first outdoor competition in over a year (385 days), Thompson won the 110m hurdles with a time of 14.00, which was the second fastest performance in program history. The time fell just two hundredths of a second shy of tying his own school record in the event. In addition, Thompson's time was the 29th fastest time in the NCAA this year.
 
In the 400m hurdles, Thompson posted a time of 52.30, which ranks first in the Patriot League and 27th in the NCAA currently. He also ran the opening leg of the 4x100m relay that posted a collective time of 41.45 to win the event.
 
Navy returns to action next weekend as the Midshipmen take on Army in America's Meet. The Army-Navy Outdoor Star Meet is slated for Saturday, April 3 at Ingram Field in Annapolis.
