BISMARK, ND – The North Star Athletic Association (NSAA) has officially released the final edition of its Women's Outdoor Track and Field Athletes of the week, and Viterbo's Olivia Wingo has been selected as the Field Athlete of the Week. This is her first time collecting the honor, and she is joined by Dakota State's Lindsey Roth as the Track Athlete of the Week.

Wingo produced the NAIA 'A' automatic qualifying mark in the NCAA Division III outdoor track & field meet, Battle in the Bluffs hosted by the University of Dubuque (Iowa).
