BOSTON - For the third time this year and first in his outdoor track & field career, UMBC's Ojigwe Olua was named America East Rookie of the Week. 

The Catonsville native jumped into second all-time on UMBC's outdoor performance list in the 110 hurdles on Saturday, competing at the Dan Stimson Memorial Invitational hosted by William & Mary. 

Olua clocked a time of 14.17, winning the event and shooting up the record books. Olua's time is the fastest in the America East so far this outdoor season and ranks 57th nationally.
