ATHLETES OF THE WEEK

Dan Quinn (Hamburg, NY/Frontier) of the baseball team batted .448 (13-for-29) with four home runs, nine runs scored and 10 RBIs in UB's eight games over the spring break. Quinn hit the go-ahead home run in the ninth inning to help the Bulls beat Towson, 12-9, on Saturday and he also posted a go-ahead homer in the seventh inning during his two-homer performance against UMBC on Tuesday to help Buffalo to a 7-6 win.

Vanessa Roelofsen (Alma, Ontario/Norwell District) of the women's track and field team shattered the school record with her winning javelin toss to lead the Bulls to a season-opening team victory at the Seahawk Invitational. A freshman in her first collegiate meet, Roelofsen won the event with a personal-best throw of 161-9 (49.30m), breaking the old mark set by Meagan Rogers in 2003 by 37 feet. She also qualified for May's NCAA East Regional meet.
