Tordsen, Moore Selected as NSAA Field Athletes of the Week

Yesterday, the North Star Athletic Association released the first edition of the weekly awards for Track & Field. Connor Tordsen and Madissyn Moore were selected as the Field Athletes of the Week for their performances at the Wildcat Open at NCAA Division II Wayne State.

Tordsen set a new DSU record in the discus throw over the weekend, winning the title by tossing 52.40 meters. That was an NAIA “A” automatic qualifying mark. He also threw 44.05 meters to place 10th in the hammer throw and a shot-put toss of 13.12 meters.

Moore won the long jump title by leaping 5.30 meters, which was a personal record. That was the fourth best in the DSU record book and the mark also leads the conference.
