FAIRFAX, Va. – After competing strong at their lone home meet of the regular season, three George Mason track and field athletes received weekly recognition from the Atlantic 10.

Blaine Lacey was named the A-10 Men's Track Performer of the Week, John Seals was tabbed as the Men's Field Performer of the Week and GJaudy John-Wallace was chosen as Women's Co-Rookie of the Week. It marked the second time during this indoor/outdoor season each student-athlete had received A-10 weekly honors.

Lacey, junior from Chesapeake, Va., finished third in the 800-meter run at the Mason Spring Invitational on Saturday at George Mason Stadium. He registered the fastest time in the Atlantic 10 this season with a time of 1:50.03. It qualifies him for the IC4A Championships and also ranks as the 34th fastest time in the NCAA East region.
