Cullen Monahan | Christopher Newport | Sr.

Stafford, Va. | Colonial Forge   

Christopher Newport senior Cullen Monahan was selected as the CAC Track Athlete of the Week for the third time this season after establishing a new CAC record in the 800 meters at the New Captains Classic on Saturday. Monahan won the event in 1:51.13, which shaved half a second off the previous mark of 1:51.63 set by Christopher Newport's Zach Campbell in 2017. Monahan's clocking also ranks second in the NCAA this year and stands as the second-best mark in CNU history. Along with his individual efforts, Monahan helped lead the 4x400-relay to a victory as well. During the event, the foursome finished in 3:17.13. That time leads the CAC and ranks sixth in the country this year.
