BIRMINGHAM – Texas A&M track & field's Winny Bii was named SEC Women's Field Athlete of the Week following her national-leading mark in the triple jump at the Tiger Paw Invitational, the league announced Tuesday.
Â
Bii continued her triple jump dominance in Clemson, as she won her fourth-straight title of the season. The junior leapt a personal-best mark of 14.01m/45-11.75 on her sixth and final attempt, which was the first time surpassing the 14m barrier in her career. Her leap also improved her mark at the No. 2 slot on the A&M all-time performers list and broke her own Kenyan national record.
Â
The Aggies returns to action this week as they head to South Bend, Indiana, for the Alex Wilson Invitational Feb. 22.
