Knight of the Month

Fairleigh Dickinson women's track and field athlete Madeline Price is the Bogota Savings Bank Knight of the Month for February.

The senior from Cannan, Maine earned 35 points in the NEC Championship to help the Knights win their first conference title since 1999. Price earned the gold medal in the 60-meter dash, the long jump, and the triple jump, which led to her being named the MVP of the NEC Championships. She won the Knights first gold medal on Day One in the long jump with a leap of 5.95 meters.

On day two, the senior set a PR in the 60-meter event after clocking a time of 7.64 seconds. Price also defended her title in the triple jump and set a PR with a 12.36 meter jump. In the 200-meter event, she set a PR with a 24.92 time, which earned the Knights five points. The senior concluded her NEC Championship career with four gold medals, which is tied for the third most in program history. Price also posted a gold medal victory in the long jump at the 113^th Millrose Games and set a PR with a 6.04 meter leap. She has earned two NEC Field Athlete of the Week awards during the season and qualified for the IC4A/ECAC Championships.
