MANSFIELD, Mass. (May 4, 2021) -- For the fifth straight week, sophomore Julieth Nwosu (Brockton, Mass.) of the Franklin Pierce University women’s track & field team has been named Northeast-10 Conference Field Rookie of the Week, this time for the week ending on May 2, as announced on Tuesday afternoon by the league office. This time around, she was joined by freshman Brogan Bonsaint (Somersworth, N.H.), who took home Field Rookie of the Week accolades on the men’s side.

Nwosu picked up yet another shot put win last week as the Ravens hosted the Teamsgiving Relays - North. She took first with a heave of 12.98 meters, and added a second-place finish in the discus as well, with a throw of 36.45 meters.

As for Bonsaint, he stole the show for the Ravens on Saturday at the SNHU Last Chance meet. He won the javelin with a throw of 58.92 meters, which was good enough to meet the NCAA Championships provisional qualifying standard in the event. Bonsaint’s distance ranks 26th in the nation.

The 4x100-meter squad the Ravens sent into action on Saturday at SNHU consisted of freshman Angelique Coa, senior Alyssa Harris (Billerica, Mass.), sophomore Destini Hill-Edwards (Paget, Bermuda) and sophomore Nyjah Young-Bey (Montclair, N.J.).

The Ravens are in action this week, for the three-day NE10 Championships, which begin on Thursday and will be hosted by American International College in Springfield, Mass.
