The Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) recognized a pair of Albany State University Golden Rams on Tuesday, April 14, naming Cadence Cray and Cadence Tanner as Women's Track and Field Athletes of the Week for their outstanding performances in competition.

Key Takeaway: Albany State University swept the SIAC Women's Track and Field weekly honors, with both Cadence Cray and Cadence Tanner earning recognition for their impressive showings in last week's meets.

The dual recognition from the SIAC office in Atlanta highlights the strength of Albany State's women's track and field program and showcases the Golden Rams' continued excellence in conference competition. Both student-athletes delivered performances worthy of conference-wide recognition during meets held the previous week.

The weekly honors program serves as an important measure of individual excellence within the SIAC, one of the nation's premier HBCU athletic conferences.



The recognition of both Cray and Tanner underscores Albany State's competitive presence in women's track and field this season.

For Albany State University, based in Albany, Georgia, the double honor represents a significant achievement for the Golden Rams' track and field program. Having two athletes recognized in the same week demonstrates the depth and quality of talent on the roster and reflects positively on the coaching staff's development of student-athletes.

The SIAC continues to be a cornerstone conference in HBCU athletics, featuring some of the most competitive track and field programs in Division II athletics. Weekly honors like these spotlight the exceptional talent performing at HBCU institutions across the conference footprint.

As the track and field season progresses, performances like those delivered by Cray and Tanner will be crucial for Albany State as the Golden Rams work toward conference championships and potential postseason opportunities. Recognition from the SIAC office serves not only as acknowledgment of past achievement but also as motivation for continued excellence on the track.
