SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – For the second time in three weeks, the South Dakota Track and Field program received three of the four Kwik Star Summit League Peak Performer of the Week honors, announced by the conference office Tuesday afternoon.
 
South Dakota's Caleb Rivera, Sara Reifenrath, and Spencer Buley received honors this week after their performances at the DeLoss Dodds Invitational in Manhattan, Kan. North Dakota's Kenna Curry received the fourth weekly honor.
 
Caleb Rivera (Gr., Distance, St. James, Minn.)
Caleb Rivera is this week's Kwik Star Summit League Indoor Men's Track Peak Performer of the Week. Rivera set the school record in the mile run Saturday at the DeLoss Dodds Invitational, running 4:03.01 to win the event and set the record. Rivera's time is the top time in the Summit League this season.
 
Rivera also ran in the 1,000-meters Friday night for the Yotes, placing second in 2:21.96 behind teammate Mason Sindelar, who also broke the school record in the 1,000.
 
This is Rivera's first Summit League weekly honor.
