NORFOLK, Va. – Junior jumper Tia Lucas of NC Central’s women’s track & field team was named the MEAC Women’s Co-Field Athlete of the Week on Wednesday afternoon by the conference office. Lucas last earned this honor during the indoor season.
The James Island, S.C. native finished second in the women’s high jump event at the Duke Twilight on May 4. She cleared 1.71m for a new personal record in the final regular-season meet.
Lucas’ new personal record now ties her second on the HBCU Outdoor Performance list and 10th in the Southeast region this season.
With the MEAC Outdoor Track & Field Championships approaching on May 15-17, Lucas will be right with the Eagles in Norfolk, Va., as NCCU starts the postseason.
