University of Montana junior Jas Gill has been named the Big Sky Conference Men's Field Athlete of the Week the league office announced on Monday. Gill, an Abbotsford, B.C., native, was honored for his performance at last Friday's UM-MSU Dual at Bozeman, Mont.
Gill, who has won the high jump at the last two BSC Indoor Championships with heights of 7-1 (2003) and 6-10.75 (2004), won the high jump on Friday with a height of 6-10.25 in his first indoor meet of the season.
Gill's height matched the best mark in the conference to date (which he shares with teammate Dan Casey).
Gill also tried his hand at the triple jump, an event he does not practice on a regular basis. He finished with a distance of 47-7.75, which not only was a BSC qualifying mark, but was the best effort in the league this year by 2.5 inches.
Montana competes this weekend at the Mountain States Invitational in Pocatello, Idaho.
