Mangeon, Thompson & Kouami Headline ECC Weekly Awards

WEST BABYLON, N.Y.- Louis Mangeon, Dayna Thompson and Emmanuela Katou Kouami headlined this week's ECC Weekly awards for their performances last week.

Mangeon had an impressive week going 2-0 in singles play and 1-1 in doubles play at the No.1 spot. He defeated QC's Roni Rikkonen in two sets blanking him in the second set and went on to defeat STAC's Odysseas Papaioannou in a three-set affair to end the week.

Thompson placed fifth out of a field of 30 with a time of 58.12 in the 400m at the Towson Invitational, which was also the fastest DII time of the meet. She then went on to run on the 4x400m relay that placed third with a time of 4:01.15. Both times now rank first in the ECC this season. 

Kouami had a strong showing in all three field events she competed in at the Towson Invitational. Her mark of 44.00m in the hammer throw was good for eighth out of a field of 27 and was the best DII mark off the meet. She also threw the farthest DII mark in the discus with 37.44m. She placed 13th in the shot put with a mark of 10.82m. Her marks in all three events are also ECC season-bests.
