Point Park to Compete in Shippensburg Mid-Week PR Bonanza

SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. -- Point Park track & field is set to compete on Thursday in the Shippensburg University Mid-Week PR Bonanza.

 

The Pioneers broke six program records last week with Luke McKenna (5,000m - 14:56.76), Mya Greschner (long jump - 5.96 meters), Jonah Schneider (discus - 44.47 meters), Khady Ndiaye (triple jump - 12.09 meters), Emma Roemer (100m hurdles - 14.32) and Maxwell Eaton (400m - 48.58) all setting themselves atop the record books.

 

Ndiaye and Akeem Mustapha both set NCAA Division II Provisional marks, with Ndiaye's triple jump and Mustapha's 7.15-meter long jump accomplishing the feat.

 

Jakob Blatnik was named MEC Track & Field Athlete of the Week on Monday after recording a distance of 65.10 meters in the javelin at Westminster on Saturday. Blatnik's mark was nearly seven meters greater than the second-place distance.
