LAS VEGAS, N.M.- The Las Vegas, New Mexico area Subway® restaurants and Manger Regina Denardo is pleased to announce that Salcia Slack of the Cowgirl track and field team has been named the Subway Eat Fresh Student-Athlete of the Week.

Slack had an outstanding weekend at the Alumni Open hosted by Western State Colorado. Slack scored a NCAA season high of 4,170 point in the pentathlon, which is 209 points ahead of the second place holder. Slack is also atop the triple jump standings with an amazing jump of 12.91 (42’4.25”) meters and also tops her program best jump of 12.75. Her long jump mark of 6.21 (20’4.5”) meters this weekend also ranks her third nationally. Her time of 8.42 seconds in the 60 meter hurdles also put her in third place nationally this season.

In its second year, the Subway® Student-Athlete of the Week will be chosen every week for the athletic year. Every student-athlete chosen for the weekly award will be eligible to win the Subway Eat Fresh® Student-Athlete of the Year award following the 2015-2016 academic year. While the weekly award will be based on athletic prowess, the yearly award will be bestowed upon an athlete based on success not only on the playing field, but also in the classroom and community involvement. Congrats Salcia Slack!
