St. John Fisher College’s Trevor Wilkes (Honeoye Falls-Lima/Honeoye Falls) of the men’s track and field team has been named as the College’s Male Athlete of the Week for the week ending April 7, 2013.
On Saturday, Wilkes and the Cardinals traveled down East Avenue to compete in the ROC City Classic, hosted by Nazareth College. The first-year runner won his event, finishing with a Fisher record of :50.89 in the 400-meter dash. Wilkes beat out the next closest finisher by nearly one second, as the silver medalist came across at :51.71.
Wilkes beat his personal best with the finish, which was set at :51.03 last Saturday at the Rochester Spring Invitational at University of Rochester.
The Cardinals will return to action on Saturday when they compete in the Raider Open, hosted by Roberts Wesleyan College.
