LAKEWOOD, CO- The Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference announced their Track Athlete of the Week on Wednesday, and Josh Pierantoni has earned the weekly honor after a stellar weekend. 

Pierantoni began with the 3000m on Friday at UCCS, setting a program record and NCAA Provisional Qualifying Time with an altitude converted run of 7:57.69. The time is good for second best nationally in all of division two as the Wyoming native pushes towards a nationals berth. Josh impressed yet again the next day, running the lengthy 5000m and beating every opponent in his wake. With a time of 13:51.44, Pierantoni now sits fourth nationally in the difficult distance event. The run was another program record as the graduate student continues to dominate the distance events in track. Look for Pierantoni to continue with his strong showings as we move into 2024 and closer to the National Championships. 

Congratulations to Josh Pierantoni on being named RMAC Track Athlete of the Week!
