Cougar senior shattered facility and program record in College Station
HOUSTON – University of Houston senior Mikaila Martin continues to rewrite the Houston record book en route to American Athletic Conference Co-Women's Field Athlete of the Week.
Â
Martin continues to have a stellar outdoor season for the Cougars, shattering the program record in the Hammer Throw for the fourth time this season last weekend at the Texas A&M Invitational. With a toss of 66.71m (218-10), Martin secured a first-place finish in the event at meet and shattered the E.B. Cushing Stadium record.
Â
The award marks the first of the season for Martin.
Houston will return to action on April 17 in Baton Rouge at the Boots Garland Invitational hosted by LSU.
