NORMAN — Oklahoma senior BJ Green was named SEC Co-Field Athlete of the Week following his impressive performance at the DeLoss Dodds Invitational, the conference announced Tuesday. 

The Ruston, La., native climbed to the top of the national leaderboard in just his second appearance of the season, earning the men's triple jump title in the World Athletics Bronze section with his leap of 16.81m (55'2.00"). The mark broke both the facility and meet records, along with slating Green at No. 2 in the world this year. Green is the 2025 NCAA and SEC Outdoor triple jump champion, and is looking to build on his momentum in his senior season.

The Sooners return to action Friday, Feb. 6, at the Oklahoma Classic in Norman.
