After breaking two school records and hitting two NCAA Provisional Qualifying marks, Riyana Owens is your GoLHU.com Athlete of the Week.

Owens' effort at this weekend's Utica Pioneer Invitational is one for the record books. To start the meet on Saturday, Owens broke her own school record in the 60m dash and obliterated the field. Her 7.67-second mark is not only a PSAC No. 2, but she also successfully hit an NCAA-Provisional mark. She won the race by nearly four tenths of a second.
 
As if to out-do herself, Owen's returned in the 200m dash to break a 15-year-old school record in 25.13s. That previous school record was set by Ashley Hartman in 2006.

After conversion, her 24.75s mark ranks second in the PSAC and also marks yet another NCAA-Provisional mark. She finds herself ranked 17th in Division II in the event. She also broke the facility record and won the race by over a second.

Her dominant run continued in the 4x200m race when she received the baton in third and her 25.50 anchor split, a time which would have won the open 200m, brought the win home for the Bald Eagles.

In the end, Owens contributed to 30 team points and helped Lock Haven finish second out of fourteen teams.

Owens was also tabbed the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Track Athlete of the Week for her incredible performance this weekend at the Utica Pioneer Invitational.
