MALE 鈥� GEOFF HARRIS
SPORT 鈥� TRACK AND FIELD
Geoff Harris is this week脮s 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Male Athlete of the Week. Harris won the CIS Rookie of the Year award at a pre-championship luncheon and then went on to prove why he deserved the honour at the 2006 CIS Track and Field championships this past weekend at the University of Saskatchewan. Harris led both the preliminary and final heats in the 600m wire-to-wire to win the event making him the first rookie to win in over 15 years and the first-ever 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 rookie to win a CIS track and field gold medal. He was also a member of 新加坡六合彩开奖直播's 4x800m bronze medal relay effort. In an amazing story, Harris's heel was clipped at the 100-metre-mark during the relay and he fell, causing the team to lose about 20 metres and approximately three seconds. Harris then got back on his feet and finished his leg of the race less than a metre behind the first-place runner. His successes led the Tigers to their best-ever showing at the CIS meet with a sixth-place overall team finish. Harris is a first-year Arts student from Halifax, NS.
