Sophomore Hannah McDanel of the track & field team has been tabbed the Chick-fil-A Robinson RMU Female Student-Athlete of the Week for April 5, 2023, joining Colleen Tifft of the lacrosse team in garnering the honor. At the 2023 Colonial Relays (4/1) last weekend on the campus of William & Mary, McDanel ran the third leg of RMU’s 4x100-meter relay that earned silver with a time of 46.52 seconds. That time established a new program record in the event. In the last 12 months, McDanel has been part of a 4x100-meter relay squad for RMU that has set each of the top five times in the event in school history. McDanel, a native of Wampum, Pa., was also part of RMU’s 4x400-meter relay at the Colonial Relays that posted a time of 4:00.37, a time that tops the Horizon League in early portion of the outdoor campaign.
