After cruising to a victory at the New Hampshire Invitational this past weekend, junior Rich Peters has been named the GoTerriers.com Student-Athlete of the Week.

Peters finished the course more than a full minute faster than his next-closest competitor, crossing the finish line with a time of 25:07.81. His average mile time was 5:03.4, nearly 13 seconds faster than the second-place athlete.

Thanks in part to Peters' performance, the Terriers won their second straight team title and defeated four other conference foes in the process.
