Western Reserve’s Greg Patrick was named the Ohio Athletic Conference Men’s Field Athlete of the Week for his performance last weekend, throwing the shot put for Baldwin-Wallace.

Patrick set a school record in the shot put with a throw of 54-feet, 10-inches. The previous record was set by Jim Tillotson in 1975 with a mark of 54-4.5.

Patrick also placed second in a field of mostly Division I athletes and his throw hit the provisional qualifying mark for the NCAA Division III Championship meet that will take place at B-W in late May.
