Junior Malik Hamilton of Knox College raced to top performances in three events in a single week to earn MWC Track Performer of the Week.

Hamilton set a school record in the men's 60m with a second-place finish (7.02) at the Wartburg Indoor Invite last Saturday. The time ranks No. 2 on the MWC leaderboard heading into this weekend's Championship meet. Hamilton also placed second in the 200m recording the league's fastest time of the season and tying the third-best performance in Knox indoor track history. Finally, the junior helped the 4x400m relay to a fourth-place finish with a time of 3:25.00. The mark places Knox atop the league standings and breaks its own school record from a week ago.
