FORT COLLINS - Jumper Taye Holker was named the Mountain West Female Field Athlete of the Week after her performance at the Colorado Invitational last weekend.

Taye also placed first in the 100-meter dash with a personal best time of 11.68. With this new time, she sits tied for ninth in the CSU record book.
