3/1/2021 1:54:00 PM | Track and Field, Women's Volleyball
Sophomore field athlete Jonathan Surdej won the gold medal at the Mid-American Conference Indoor Track & Field Championships this past weekend in the shot put. His toss of 16.92-meters brought back the dominance of Coach Garnham's throwers. Surdej's throw was a personal-best of 16.92-meters, edging out Eastern Michigan's Chuk Enekwechi with 16.91-meters. He improved his top-10 distance and stays at ninth in UB history.
Freshman right side Emma Gielas tied the Bulls for the team lead in kills this past weekend as UB split a pair of matches at Eastern Michigan. On Thursday, the Bulls picked up a 3-2 win as Gielas had a career-high 21 kills, the most by a UB freshman since the 2017 season. In addition to the 21 kills, she hit .341 and had seven digs. Gielas followed up that performance with 17 kills on Friday against the Eagles.
