TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – Sophomore Kentucky thrower Ashley Muffet (North Canton, Ohio) tied for the 2007 Southeastern Conference Outdoor Women’s Track and Field Commissioner’s Cup, the trophy awarded to the league’s top individual points scorer at the annual outdoor championships. The four-day championships hosted by the University of Alabama at Sam Bailey Track and Field Stadium concluded late Sunday evening.

Muffet finished with 22 of Kentucky’s 42 team points at this weekend’s SEC Championships. She finished second in the shot put and hammer throw and third in the discus against stiff competition. Auburn’s Kerron Stewart also finished with 22 points.

“This is a really special accomplishment,” UK head coach Don Weber said. “That’s what this meet is all about, seeing who can score the most points. For her to score as many as she did against the level of competition in this meet – the significance of that is huge. This is the best track and field meet in the country year in and year out.”

Muffet has notched NCAA regional-qualifying marks in each of her three events this season and also claimed the 2007 SEC Indoor Shot Put Championship in February. She earned indoor All-America honors this season as well.
