DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - The Sun Conference announced its weekly award winners in the sport of outdoor track & field on Monday, and Embry-Riddle's Evans Kirwa  was named the men's outdoor track athlete of the week for the second consecutive week.

Kirwa broke a school record and reached an "A" standard in the 5000m this past weekend at the 2012 Florida Relays. The Kenya native raced to a second-place finish in the event, posting a 14:03.80 time, just a second behind the winner from NCAA I Florida.
