DALLAS, Texas – WKU Track & Field student-athletes Maor Seged and Getter Lemberg earned spots on Conference USA's 2019 InTouch Credit Union Men's and Women's Track and Field All-Academic Teams. The two seniors are both four-year letter winners at WKU. This is Seged's second honor of the kind and Lemberg's first.
Israel-native Seged is a two-time All-American Honorable Mention in addition to being listed on the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll each of the last three years. He has earned trips to the NCAA Outdoor Championships in each of his last three seasons on The Hill.
The Hilltopper owns numerous top times in the WKU record books including the fifth, seventh and eighth best 400-meter hurdle times. Seged was also a part of the 4x400-meter relay teams that recorded the fifth and seventh best outdoor times and fourth and fifth best indoor times in school history.
Most recently, Seged took home a second-place finish in the 400-meter hurdles at the C-USA Outdoor Championships. He won the event his freshman year in 2016. Seged is graduating with a degree in Electrical Engineering.
Polevaulter Lemberg has been on the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll twice and earned the Commissioner's Academic Medal earlier this year. She has also landed on the WKU President's List twice in her time on The Hill.
The Estonia-native recorded a top-five finish at five of her eight C-USA Championships including three indoor and two outdoor meets. She owns the top C-USA outdoor pole vault mark for this season by a tenth of a meter after notching a height of 4.01 meters at the Hilltopper Relays in April.
Lemberg finished her undergraduate degree last year and is currently working on a Social Work graduate degree.
