NEW ORLEANS – After clearing the bar in the men's high jump at over seven feet for the second straight meet and third time in his career, Louisiana's Damon Guidry was named on Wednesday as the Sun Belt Conference Male Athlete of the Week in a release by the league office.
Guidry, a junior, claimed first-place honors at the McNeese Spring Time Classic last weekend after clearing the bar at a personal-best 7-0 ½ on his first attempt. The Crowley native recorded the third jump at over seven feet in his career and his second at the McNeese Spring Time Classic after clearing 7-0 ¼ in 2017.
