Kansas University senior thrower Daina Levy was named the Big 12 track-and-field athlete of the week after a season-best mark and victory in the hammer throw at the Rock Chalk Classic.

Levy, who also earned the weekly award during the indoor season, won the Rock Chalk Classic throw with a season-best mark of 224 feet, 3 inches. That was a Rock Chalk Park facility record and ranks third on KU’s all-time hammer-throw list.
