Butler, Wilson named CCAC Athletes of the Week

CHICAGO --- First-place finishes from St. Ambrose University's Gabbi Butler (Belleville, Wis.) and Jonah Wilson (Riverdale, Iowa) have resulted in Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference Indoor Track & Field weekly honors for the pair, the league office announced on Wednesday.

Butler, the CCAC Women's Track Athlete of the Week, gained meet titles in two of the three events she competed in at Olivet Nazarene's Walter Cramer Invite. She won the 200-meter dash (25.55 seconds) out of 51 participants and was part of the first-place 4x400-meter relay team (4:06.93). The senior's time in the former event met the 'B' standard. 

Butler also competed in the 60-meter dash, where her 8.08-second finish placed seventh among 47 competitors.

Wilson captured CCAC Men's Field Athlete of the Week distinction after recording the sixth-best distance in the NAIA this year in the shot put event at the Cramer Invite. The senior's mark of 54 feet, 0.5 inches qualified as an 'A' standard and was the top performance among 54 contestants.
