Centerville, MA --- Junior Alyssa Jasper (Rockland, MA) has been distinguished with Corvais ECAC Division III New England Field Athlete of the Week accolades after a standout performance at the Division III New England Championships hosted by Springfield this past weekend.

Her marks in the heptathlon included the top finishes in the javelin (135-4/41.26m), 100 meter hurdles (15.22) and shot put (37-11.25/11.56m) as well as second in the 800 meters (2:20.93) and 200 (26.11).

She also ran the third leg 4x100 meter relay that claimed fourth overall for All-New England laurels(48.01).

With her outstanding efforts over the weekend, she moved up to fifth in the NCAA Division III outdoor rankings in the javelin, seventh in the heptathlon and the relay team is tied for the 14th best spot nationally. She is just 391 points off of sophomore Amelia Campbell (Sturgeon Bay, WI) who leads in the heptathlon.
