TERRE HAUTE, IND. -- Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology track and field standouts Sutton Coleman (Lebanon, Va.) and Liz Ridgway (Grosse Pointe, Mich./ Northwestern University) have been named Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference Track and Field Athletes of the Week for their efforts on Friday night.
