FAIRFIELD, CT - Freshman Julie Law (Kingston, RI) of the equestrian team has been named the Enterprise Rent-A-Car/Sacred Heart University Student Athlete of the Week for the week ending October 14.

Law was awarded High Point Rider on Sunday at the IHSA Yale-Sacred Heart Horse Show. Law placed first in both her intermediate flat and novice jumping classes and won the "Ride Off" at the end of day against Columbia.
