OSWEGO, N.Y. – Dylan McCarthy of the men’s track and field team has been named the Oswego State Male Athlete of the Week for the week ending on Feb. 21, 2016.

McCarthy’s performance in the 3000-meter run on the final weekend of the indoor track regular season earned him first place in the meet and solidified his standing as threat in the upcoming conference championships.

In a field of 18 runners, the Liverpool, N.Y. native crossed the line with a time of 8:56.02 just ahead of second and third places. The freshman who holds the top 8k freshman time in Oswego State history knocked 26 seconds off his previous 3000-meter best.

The Lakers will head back to the Special Events and Recreational Center at Brockport for the SUNYAC Championships, which begin at 3 p.m. on Friday and conclude Saturday evening.
