Men's Track & Field Earns Several IC4A Qualifying Marks Saturday
Freshman Darryl Hunter won the shot put for the third-straight meet Saturday versus James Madison. |
Annapolis, Md. - The Navy men's track & field team had five athletes qualify for the 2005 IC4A Indoor Championship in a non-scoring dual-meet versus James Madison Saturday at Halsey Fieldhouse.
Three of the five IC4A qualifiers were freshmen, including Darryl Hunter (Des Moines, Iowa), Dante Marshall (Hermitage, Pa.) and Paul Harris (Woodbury, Minn.). The IC4A Championship will be held March 5-6, in Boston, Mass.
Overall, the Mids won 13 individual events and both relays in the dual-meet.
"This was a good meet for us today," Navy head coach Stephen Cooksey said. "I can't thank James Madison enough for braving the weather and coming up here for the meet. They gave us some good competition and it helped our guys stay focused on getting better in each meet."
In addition to qualifying for the championship, Hunter won the shot put with a toss of 51'6-1/2". The victory marked the third-consecutive meet Hunter has been victorious in the event.
Marshall qualified for the IC4A by placing first in the triple jump with a leap of 47'0-1/14". The win was the first-collegiate victory for Marshall, who had come close in several other events in earlier meets this season.
Harris took home top honors in the 800 meters with a time of 1:53.00. It was the second victory of the season for Harris, who also won the 500 meters versus Princeton back on Jan. 8.
"Our young guys did a really nice job of competing today," Cooksey said. "They have been improving with each practice and meet."
Senior Ralph Lufkin (Basking Ridge, N.J.) and junior Joshua Sink (Welcome, N.C.) were the other two IC4A qualifiers for the Midshipmen. Lufkin won the 35-pound weight throw with a toss of 58'4", while Sink placed first in the 1000 meters in a time of 2:27.80. Lufkin, who also finished second in the shot put, has won the weight throw in all four of Navy's meets this season.
Other Navy winners included sophomore Kelly Stephens (Houston, Texas) in the pole vault (15'3"); senior Adriel Morgan (Portage, Mich.) in the long jump (22'8"); sophomore Cole Herron (Sanger, Calif.) in the high jump (6'4"); junior Marcus Scarborough (Columbia, S.C.) in the 55-meter hurdles (7.86); sophomore Trey Hines (Douglasville, Ga.) in the 55-meter dash (6.55); freshman William Ricks (Sussex, Va.) in the 400 meters (49.59); freshman Craig Meekins (Baldwin, N.Y.) in the 500 meters (1:07.10); and junior Jamar Green (Pineville, La.) in the 200 meters (22.77).
Navy also won the 4x400-meter relay (3:20.34) and the 4x800-meter relay (7:55.98).
The Midshipmen will be back in action next Friday and Saturday, when they travel to University Park, Pa., to compete in the Penn State National Open.
