College Men's Pole VaultPhiladelphia, PA - The Messiah College track & field teams are competing at the 121st Penn Relays this week, hosted at the historic Franklin Field.
Saturday, Apr. 25Tim Moses took 12th overall with decent performance in the pole vault. Moses cleared 5.05m (16'6.75"). The mark was just short of the 5.15m he earned recently at the Greyound Invitational. Even still, Moses impressed as the only Division III athlete among the 13-man field, all others of which were Division I competitors.
Friday, Apr. 24Trevor Stutzman placed 13th among all competitors and first among Division III participants in the shot put with a throw of 16.85m (55'3.5"). Stutzman's throw was almost a full meter shy of his best throw this season (17.62m), but it was still impressive enough to outperfom much of the 50-competitor field.
The men's 4x400 relay also competed on Friday evening, and the four person team of
Braden Miller,
Jonphilip McGill,
Donnell McNair, and
Curtis Mather setting a season's best time. They finished in 3:23.39, more than four seconds faster than a Messiah time this season, and also good for fourth place in the Pop Haddleton Heat.
Misericordia, Widener, and Susquehanna finished in front of Messiah in that order, with Lebanon Valley and Johns Hopkins each trailing by less than half a second.
Thursday, Apr. 23The Messiah College women's track & field 4x400 relay took sixth place on Thursday with a time of 4:09.36.
The time was the best of the season for Messiah, and it was earned by
Tiffany Burrows,
Rachel Bowser,
Emily Senning, and
Holly Seipt. They finished .98 seconds behind fifth-place Elizabethtown and more than three-quarters of a second in front of seventh-place Susquehanna.
Last season the Messiah women did not compete in the race, which is set between the Centennial and MAC. The record for the division remains a Falcons' team from 2011:
Liz Martin, Grace Kaste, Amber Stephan, and Katie Craven with a time of 3:56.26.
