Junior distance runner Katie Matthews of the Boston University women's track & field team has been named this week's GoTerriers.com Student-Athlete of the Week.
At the NCAA championships in Des Moines, Iowa, Matthews secured an eighth-place finish in the 10,000-meter final. The Rocky Hill, Conn., native crossed the finish line in 34:45.77, more than 18 seconds ahead of the next finisher.
With the top-eight finish, Matthews became the first Terrier to achieve U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association First Team All-America honors twice in a calendar year since Tahari James and Marisa Ryan each accomplished the feat in 2008.
