UNLV junior distance runner Jenni Nelson has been named the Mountain West Conference outdoor track and field co-athlete of the Week, sharing the honor with BYU's Susan Taylor.
Last week, Nelson broke a 15-year-old school record in the 10,000 meters, clocking 34:54.44 and finishing fifth in the event at the Mt. SAC Relays in Walnut, Calif. She shattered the previous mark set by Helen Reluga in 1985 by more than a full minute and posted the league's best time this season.
