OGDEN, Utah – The duo of Ben Doucette and Zachary Short have repeated as Big Sky Male Athletes of the Week, as announced by the conference office. Both were also recognized last Tuesday following the opening weekend of competition for the Vandals.
Doucette re-set his personal-best in the 60-meter hurdles, edging Washington State's Sam Brixey by one one-hundredth of a second in the final. Doucette ran 8.00 seconds in the prelims, then 7.87 seconds in the final to earn the win. Check back with GoVandals.com later this week for an in depth look at Doucette's growth this season.
