George (Brooklyn, N.Y./Tilden HS) received this honor for her performances at the Southern Connecticut State University Invitational last weekend. In the hammer throw, George finished second with a mark of 17011 m. This mark earned George the right to participate in both the ECAC and BIG EAST championships. Georges most recent hammer mark is her season-best. In the shot put event, George was the runner-up. A 4406.75m feat qualified George for the BIG EAST and ECAC championships in the shot put. This mark ranks among the top ten all-time at St. Johns.
George, the 2001 ECAC indoor shot put champion, represented Grenada at the 1994 Caritha Games. She is only the second person in Grenada history to win two medals at any Caritha Games.
George, a native of Grenada, is a junior working on an accounting degree at the University. George is the daughter of Elias and Kheruda Robert.
