Grandon named CCAC Track Athlete of the Week

CHICAGO --- Record-setting performances by St. Ambrose University's Dylan Grandon (Urbandale, Iowa) and Saint Xavier University's Ronnie Foster (Peoria Heights, Ill.) during the seven-day period ending April 13 have netted Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference men's outdoor track & field weekly honors for the pair of individuals. The league office made the announcement on Wednesday.

Grandon was recognized as the CCAC Track Athlete of the Week after setting a school record in the 800-meter run at the Jim Duncan Invitational on Friday with his time of 1:50.51. That hit the NAIA "B" standard.

One day later at the Mount Mercy University (Iowa) Mustang Distance Carnival & Open, the sophomore provided a time of 49.17 seconds in the 400-meter dash.

Both efforts placed Grandon fourth in a field of better than 30 participants.
