Hansen earns PSAC weekly honor

Jen Hansen was named Tuesday as the PSAC Female Field Athlete of the Week for her performance in the pole vault at last Saturday's Elliston Invite.

LOCK HAVEN, Pa. -- Slippery Rock University women's track and field standout Jen Hansen was named Tuesday as the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Female Field Athlete of the Week.

Hansen won the pole vault last Saturday at the Elliston Invite, hosted by Lock Haven, with an NCAA automatic qualifying mark of 3.96 meters (12'11.75"). She improved her advantage over all other PSAC competitors to nearly two feet, with the second-best mark in the league currently standing at 11'3.75".

Hansen is the only PSAC female pole vaulter to reach an NCAA automatic qualifying mark this season. She currently ranks tied for second in the nation with that mark.

The Rock will host the SRU Qualifier Friday afternoon, a meet that will serve as the final tuneup before the PSAC Championships, which will be held May 13-15 at West Chester.
