Zak Flowers (Fountain Valley, Calif.) has been named Chick-fil-a Athlete of the Week after an incredible performance at the Commonwealth Coast Conference Championships last weekend. The thrower highlighted the day for the Fighting Scots by taking first place in three field events. The senior started off by breaking the school record in the shot put at 13.04 meters. His best throw was a full foot ahead of the next best competitor from Nichols.

Flowers continued his dominance in the hammer throw with a long toss of 49.91 meters. Devin Williams of Nichols finished in second place and his best throw was 18 meters short of Flowers daunting mark. Flowers finished off his victorious day with an easy win in the discus throw at 42.73 meters, eight meters ahead of the second-place thrower.

Flowers and a handful of Scots are at MIT this weekend for the NCAA Division III New England Regional Championships.
