POSTED: 12:27 pm EST November 29, 2007

Harrisburg, PA -- (Sports Network) - Leading driver Tim Tetrick has been voted the 2007 Harness Driver of the Year by the U. S. Harness Writers Association. Tetrick was a unanimous selection by the voters.

Tetrick leads the nation with 1,086 victories and has earned $16,533,133. His win total is already a record for one year. He snapped the 1998 record of 1,077 wins held by Walter Case, Jr. and Brian Sears' earnings mark set in 2005. Sears earned more than $15 million two years ago.

Tetrick recorded his first Breeders Crown victory this year with Artistic Fella in the $500,000 Older Male Pace at Mohawk Raceway.

He will receive the Driver of the Year trophy at the Harness Writers annual awards dinner at Dover Downs on Sunday, January 27.
