Men's and women's track and field started off 2025-26 strong! Carter Tobin opened the season with a new school record 6.85 seconds in the 60m dash! https://t.co/rB60bBAa4G
Congrats Brandon Konieczki on a great performance at the NCAA Championships in the Long Jump!
BK placed 22nd & was our first athlete to compete at NCAAs in the event.
His dedication & hard work continue to elevate our team & inspire those around him.
We’re excited for the future!
Good first day all around, aside from BK winning the long jump, Dan Dabrowski was 3rd in Discus, Aiden Grieneisen was 5th in javelin, the men's 4x100 qualified for finals tomorrow, Carter qualified for finals in the 100m tomorrow. Women's 10k up next and then more tomorrow!
Highlights from our meet at CMU this weekend: School record by Julia Balaski in the javelin 43.34m. She qualified for AARTFC, as did Dan Dabrowski Discus 50.86m, Alex Cotton Discus 45.55m and Shot 15.65m, Aiden Grieneisin Javelin 61.38m, & Carter Tobin 200m 21.80s! @PSBAthletics
@stevemagness While stiffness is associated with performance ability, ankle stiffness in sprinters is another easy example, lack of functional mobility is also associated with increased risk of injury.
Perhaps selective stiffness or specific stiffness, along with functional movement is good.
As we get ready for the Mondo vs. Warholm 100m race, my favorite stat on this comes from @treyhardee...
Mondo reaches a faster top speed carrying a 17 foot pole down the runway than Tyreek Hill reached in all of last NFL season.
USATF announced the Olympics Trials field and it's now official, the Behrend facility record holder in the 400m dash will be at the US Olympic trials for the 400m dash! Good luck Eric Gregory!
