Higgs-Salaam Earns Field Performer of the Week Honors

JERSEY CITY, N.J.- Sophomore jumper and sprinter Jabari Higgs-Salaam of the Saint Peter's University men's track & field team was named the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) Men's Field Performer of the Week, as announced by the league Thursday afternoon. 

Higgs-Salaam's dominant week began on the first day of the Peacock Outdoor Invitational at Lincoln Park last Wednesday (April 7). He won the long jump event yet again in 7.20 meters, a new personal best. That mark currently puts him in a tie for first place in the conference. Over the weekend at the Metropolitan Champions at Icahn Stadium, Higgs-Salaam again came out on top in the long jump, jumping for 6.88 meters. He has won the long jump all three times he has competed thus far in the outdoor campaign. 

Higgs-Salaam and the Peacocks look to build on their solid showing at Wednesday's Peacock Invitational when they return to Icahn Stadium for the St. John's Invitational on Friday (April 16) afternoon.
