Curry, a native of Thornville, Ohio, picks up the Women's Field Events award after turning in a 14.17-meter toss in the shot put at the Sparks Adams Invitational in Berea, Ohio. The mark, which established a school standard and took first place at the event, ranks first in the Horizon League this season.
