FRISCO – For the second time this season, East Texas A&M University track and field student-athlete Romi Griese has been named the Southland Conference Women's Field Athlete of the Week on Wednesday afternoon.
 
Griese (Salzkotten, Germany) twice threw her personal-best and school record marks in the discus last week in California. Last Thursday, she set the school record with a mark of 172-1 (52.46m) at the Pacific Coast Invitational and then threw 175-0 (53.35m) last Saturday at the Beach Invitational, which is now the school record.
 
Her mark at the Beach Invitational keeps her atop the Southland rankings, while being third in the South Central region and 44^th in the country this season.
 
This is the second weekly honor for Griese this outdoor season and eighth for the Lions this season.
 
The Lions are off this week and then take part in the Corky/Crofoot Shootout on May 2-3 in Lubbock.
