Hunter Miniard earned male player of the week honors after hitting two NAIA “A” standards and breaking one school and meet record at the UC Invite.  Miniard began the day by running a season-best 14.74 to win the 110 hurdles and hit a NAIA "A" cut. He followed that up by crossing the line in 52.32 to win the 400 hurdles. That time is a new Patriot school record and meet record. It also gives Miniard the fastest time in the NAIA in the 400 hurdles by over a second.
