Rutherford NJ - Felician University Men's Track and Field Athlete Devin Jones has just been awarded Men's Field Athlete Of The Week by the East Coast Conference. This is the first week the East Coast Conference has officially nominated Athletes of the Week for the 2024-2025 Season.
Jones was nominated for Preseason Co-Athlete of the Year before the season began. Starting off his 2024-2025 Indoor Track and Field Season, he broke the Felician record for Long Jump with a distance of 7.42 meters at FDU Midweek Clash, which also leads the East Coast Conference and the NCAA in the East Region, earning him 1st Place within this event.
Heading into the next meet, UMass Boston Beacon Season Opener, Jones would shine once again as he would compete in the 60 Meter where he would take 1st Place with a time of 7.01 then compete in the Long Jump where he would jump the distance of 7.23 meters, earning him 1st Place once again.
Jones and the rest of the Felician Track and Field team now prepare to go compete at Wagner College in the Seahawks Shootout this Friday, December 13th.
