Nathan Borgan Captures OAC Field Athlete of the Week Honors

Story by David Wahl III

TIFFIN, Ohio - The Wilmington College men's track and field team has another athlete of the week as Nathan Borgan wins his first ever Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC) Field Athlete of the Week honor.

Borgan opened the season with a fifth place hammer throw of 169' 5" which was the top placed throw of a DIII athlete at the Tiffleberg Invitational. This current mark puts him at the top of the OAC in hammer throw and 13th in the nation for DIII. "It was a cold meet and my body did not want to warm up but I pushed through and had a big start to the season," says Borgan. " I fouled a few bigger throws so I am looking forward to push the mark especially when it is warmer." 

The Quakers head to Delaware, Ohio this weekend to continue the outdoor season.
