ST. LOUIS, Mo. – Two Bulldog throwers stood out among their peers last week and earned league honors because of it. Centaine Noom-Duckworth and Anthony Barmes both collected Field Athlete of the Week awards in the respective women's and men's fields.
Noom-Duckworth showed out again as Drake returned to Waverly, Iowa for the Wartburg Outdoor Classic. She won the hammer throw with a toss of 59.82m/196'-3", marking the second-best series and throw of her career. The New Zealand native is now first in the MVC by two meters. She also ranks eighth in the Midwest Region, 18th on the West Qualifying List, 39th in the NCAA, and seventh on New Zealand's all-time list.
