Jayci Andrews Named MASCAC Women's Outdoor Track Athlete of the Week

BRIDGEWATER, Mass. -- For the fourth straight week and fifth time this season, Bridgewater State University graduate student Jayci Andrews has been selected as the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference (MASCAC) Women's Outdoor Track Athlete of the Week.

The MASCAC Athlete of the Week honor marks the 39th of Andrews' career including 20 outdoor distinctions.

Andrews captured the New England title in both the 100-meter hurdles and 400-meter hurdles to lead the Bears to a seventh place finish this past weekend at the Division III New England Championships hosted by Williams College. The Plymouth, Massachusetts product posted a finals and season-best time of 14.10 seconds in the 100 hurdles and a season-best time of 1:03.04 in the 400 hurdles.

Andrews currently ranks seventh in all of Division III in the 100 hurdles and 13th in the 400 hurdles.

A four-time All-American, Andrews is the only Bridgewater State student-athlete to win multiple NCAA titles. She claimed the national title in the 60-meter hurdles at the 2019 NCAA Division III Indoor Track & Field Championships, and then capped off her impressive run by capturing top honors in the 100-meter hurdles at the 2019 DIII Outdoor Track & Field Championships.

Andrews presently holds nine individual school records at Bridgewater State (along with three relay marks). She is the Bears indoor record holder in the 55-meter hurdles (8.50), 60-meter hurdles (8.68), long jump (17'6.75"), 200-meter dash (26.37) and 400-meter dash (57.14), as well as the outdoor record holder in the 100-meter hurdles (13.66), 400-meter hurdles (1:00.08), 400-meter dash (55.76) and long jump (17'8.75").

Qualifying members of the BSU outdoor track & field teams will compete at the New England Intercollegiate Amateur Athletic Association (NEICAAA) Championships held on Friday and Saturday at Bryant University.
