Indoor track & field sprinter Julius Rivera was named an IUP Athlete of the Week for the week ending on Sunday, Jan. 31

Rivera earns his first Athlete of the Week honor after running the second-fastest 60-meter dash time in the PSAC this indoor season Saturday at the Penn State National track & field meet. His time of 6.86 is an NCAA provisional (B cut) qualifying time and was just shy of the IUP record of 6.85.

Rivera’s personal-best time of 6.86 was achieved in the semifinals of the 60-yard dash. In the finals, Rivera sprinted to a time of 6.88 while finishing in sixth place. Last week, the Cal transfer made his IUP debut at the Youngstown State National Invitational, crossing the line in a time of 6.93 in the finals of the 60-yard dash.
