Male Athlete of the Week: Dylan Burnham

Mason Brooks, Sports Editor

The Informer’s male athlete of the week for this issue is Dalton Burnham. Dalton is a freshman pole-vaulter for the men’s track and field team. Hailing from Hershey P.A., Burnham has already proven himself to be one of the best pole vaulters Hartford has ever seen in his first year. Earlier this season, Dalton broke the school pole-vault record, and this past week at the CCSU Invitational, he broke his own top mark. With a vault of 4.25m, Dalton not only broke his own program record, but earned his first collegiate first-place finish. Congratulations to Dalton Burnham for his performance this past week.  He will look to continue his success at the America East championship Saturday, May 4.
