April 12, 2022 | Track & Field
ATHENS, Ga. --- Georgia decathlete Kyle Garland has been tabbed the Southeastern Conference Men's Field Athlete of the Week following his performance at the Tennessee Relays, according to a league announcement Tuesday.
This marks the first outdoor weekly honor for Garland, a native of Philadelphia, Pa. The 2022 NCAA indoor runner-up in the heptathlon joins Elena Kulichenko (Women's Freshman) and Matthew Boling (Men's Runner) as SEC weekly award winners for Georgia so far this season.
Garland posted five personal bests in his 10 events to score an NCAA leading 8,133 points to be the top collegiate finisher (second overall) in the decathlon at the Tennessee Relays. His score, which ranks No. 3 on this year's world list, featured the 10th-best 110-meter hurdle time (13.91) in school history.
Up Next: The Bulldogs will take a contingent to Gainesville, Fla., for the Tom Jones Memorial (April 15-16).
