Sihvonen Repeats as NE-10 Men’s Field Rookie of the Week

WALTHAM, Mass. – For the fourth consecutive week, Bentley University has produced the Men's Field Rookie of the Week in the Northeast-10 Conference with freshman Holt Sihvonen (Lebanon, Conn./Lyman Memorial HS) a repeat honoree after an outstanding performance in the MIT Sean Collier Invitational on Saturday.

Sihvonen placed first in the javelin for the second straight meet, winning by about seven feet with a throw of 184 feet, one-quarter inch.

Sihvonen, who threw the javelin 191 feet a week earlier in the Silfen Invitational at Connecticut College, ranks 35th nationally in the event so far this season. He's also number two on the Northeast-10 performance list and number three in the USTFCCCA Division II East Region, as well as on Bentley's all-time list.

Bentley will compete in the Stonehill Skyhawk Invitational Friday, its final action before the Northeast-10 Championships.
