COLONIA, NJ – Two of the top performers in the East Region this past week were both from the Roberts Wesleyan University Men's Track and Field team and both have received East Coast Conference (ECC) Weekly Honor Roll recognition.
Pole Vaulter Jordan Bryner and middle-distance specialist Jackson Doran were each selected by the ECC for the weekly honors.
Bryner won the pole vault competition at the SUNY Geneseo Outdoor Invitational with a personal record jump of 17' ¾" (5.20 meters). He became just the second vaulter in school history to clear the 17-foot mark for the win. Bryner entered the competition at 15' 3" and cleared five bars for the new PR and winning vault.
Doran started the outdoor season with a first-place finish in the 800-meter race as he sprinted to a time of 1:53.51. The time ranks No. 2 in the current East Region standings and is the top ECC time by more than five seconds in the latest standings.
The Roberts Track and Field teams will compete at the Bison Outdoor Invitational meet at Bucknell University Saturday and the SUNY Brockport Multi and Invitational Sunday and Monday.
