PEORIA, Ill. – Senior runner Alec Hartman (Westfield, Ind./Westfield) has been named this week's Bradley Scholar-Athlete of the Week announced Wednesday after breaking the school record in the 800 meters last week.

Hartman topped his own school mark in the 800 meters, clocking a time of 1:48.74 at the Joe Walker Invitational hosted by Ole Miss this past weekend to beat his previous school record of 1:49.10. Hartman's time is tied for the 12^th-best mark in Missouri Valley Conference history and is the second-best time by a conference runner in the last 12 years. He now owns the top 800-meter time in the MVC this season, with his time ranking 21^st nationally. A computer science data science major, Hartman owns a 3.66 cumulative grade point average.

Each week, a student-athlete is selected as the Bradley Scholar-Athlete of the Week. The individual chosen must be at least a sophomore in academic standing and boast a minimum 3.0 cumulative grade point average, while displaying a level of athletic excellence.

The Bradley Track & Field team returns to action at the Gibson Invitational in Terre Haute, Ind., this Saturday.
