YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio -- Point Park's Dunya Van den Tooren re-set her school record in the women's pentathlon to highlight day one at the YSU Mid-Major Invitational on Friday for the Pioneers.
Van den Tooren originally set the school record in the event at last year's YSU Mid-Major with 3,134 points. On Friday, she placed eighth overall in the event with a new school-record mark of 3,400 points. Individually in the pentathlon events, Van den Tooren took first in the high jump, eighth in the long jump and 12th in the 800m.
In the high jump, Van den Tooren cleared the 1.68-meter mark, just shy of her program-best 1.70 meters.
Luke McKenna, a junior for Lexington, S.C., recorded a 5000m time of 15:47.01, a mark that ranks top five in school history. McKenna currently sits second in school history in the 5000m with a previous mark of 15:16.29 on Dec. 5, 2025.
Christian Reid finished seventh in the 60m with his time of 7.14 seconds. Additionally, Trey Jones tallied solid performances in both the long jump (6.15 meters) and shot put (10.08 meters). Jones finished 12th and 13th in the respective events.
