RICHARDSON - The Texas A&M University-Commerce trio of Josh Boateng, Rashard Clark, and Eboni Coby picked up Lone Star Conference Athlete of the Week honors after fantastic weekends at the East Texas Invitational, leading the Lions to team titles.

Boateng - a junior from St. George's, Grenada - earns LSC Male Field Athlete of the Week honors for the fourth consecutive week. Boateng recorded the sixth-farthest discus throw in Division II history at 199-4 (60.77m) to win the East Texas Invitational, and break a 36-year old A&M-Commerce school record. He also broke the Grenada national record in the event and earned the first new entry into the Division II top ten in the last seven years. Boateng's long throw is also the sixth-farthest in all collegiate divisions this season.

Clark - a senior from Los Angeles, Calif. - posted a 21.09 in the men's 200 meter dash at the East Texas Invitational to win the event and post the third-fastest time in Division II this week, and the second-fastest in the LSC this season. He also ran in the 100-meter dash and 4x100 meter relay in the home event.

Coby- a senior from Lancaster - set a school record in a sprint event for the second straight week. Coby set the A&M-Commerce school record in the 200 meter dash, winning the event at the East Texas Invitational with a time of 24.26 seconds. She had the fastest time in Division II in the event this week and third-fastest in the LSC this season. Coby was also on the 4x100 meter relay team that won the ET Invite that had the nation's 6th-fastest time of the week at 46.43 seconds.

The Lions will go split squad this weekend, with Clark and the men's sprinters going to the Mt. SAC Relays in southern California, and the rest of the team heads to Baton Rouge, La., for the LSU Alumni Gold meet.
