RIPON, Wisconsin – Following career performances over the weekend, Bridget Finn of the Ripon women's track and field program has been named the Midwest Conference Track Performer of the Week as announced by the league on Tuesday afternoon.
 
Finn was outstanding for Ripon over the weekend at the Squig Converse Invite + Multi hosted by UW-Whitewater. In Friday's pentathlon, her 3,004-point performance was a PR, the second-best score in program history and the 24th-best pentathlon score in Division III this season. She also PR'd the 60-meter hurdles in the pentathlon with a time of 9.95 to move up in the top 10, all-time list in the Ripon record books and solidify her score as the third-best in the Midwest Conference this season. A third PR for Finn came in the 800-meter run of the pentathlon (2:30.50), the fifth-fastest time in the MWC this season. Additionally, she was a part of the 4x400 relay that posted the seventh-best time at Ripon and the second-fastest time in the MWC this season (4:13.70).
 
This is the first career weekly award for Finn and the third honor for Ripon this season after Jacoby Cefalu and Jenny Cortes swept the MWC Track Performer of the Week awards two weeks ago.
 
Ripon returns to action on Saturday, February 3 as the Red Hawks host the Red Hawk Invite inside the Willmore Center beginning at 10:45 a.m.
