FORT WORTH, Texas - Junior Festus Kigen was honored on Tuesday as the Mountain West Conference Male Athlete of the Week.
Kigen paced the Horned Frogs last Saturday at the 72nd Annual Cowboy Jamboree held in Stillwater, Okla. He clocked a personal-best 8K time of 24:18 to cross the finish line in sixth-place in front of a field that included the likes of No. 2 Oklahoma State, No. 16 Northern Arizona and Indiana.
The Eldoret, Kenya, native's time is currently the fourth-fastest time in the league this fall.
TCU will have a week off before traveling to Fayetteville, Ark., for the Chile Pepper Festival on Oct. 18
