Male Student-Athlete of the Week
Cashieve Blair, Saint Peter’s, Indoor Track and Field
Jr./ Irvington, NJ, Irvington High School
Cashieve Blair capped off an indoor season defined by dominance, delivering a flawless performance at the MAAC Indoor Track & Field Championships. He struck gold in both the 200m (21.36) and 60m (6.79)—both personal bests. His 200m time shattered his own Saint Peter’s school record (previously 21.58), and he improved in both finals after running 6.80 in the 60m and 21.43 in the 200m prelims.
His championship performance followed a standout showing at Yale’s Giegengack Invitational, where he secured first in the 400m (48.18) and helped the 4x400 relay to victory with a 50.11 split. With six consecutive event wins to close out the season, Blair has firmly established himself as one of the MAAC’s top sprinters.
