School record, NCAA qualifiers highlight weekend at Terrier Classic
January 28, 2006
BOSTON, MA- Sophomore Megan Brousseau (Attleboro, MA/Attleboro) broke a seven-year-old school record, and junior Jennifer Harlow (East Bridgewater, MA/East Bridgewater) and freshman Jonathan Cunha (Lexington, MA/Lexington) each met NCAA Division III Championship provisional qualifying standards to highlight the Wheaton College men's and women's indoor track and field teams' participation in the non-scoring Terrier Classic at Boston University's Track and Tennis Center over the weekend.
Brousseau's school record came in the 3,000-meter run, as her time of 10:16.65 was 6.98 seconds better than the former mark established during the 1999 season. Harlow met provisional qualification for the NCAA Championship meet with a 5' 5 3/4" leap in the high jump, tying for the second-best height at the meet.
Freshman Chizoba Ezeigwe (Brockton, MA/Thayer Academy) turned in a 10th-place finish in the 200-meter dash with a time of 25.38, while sophomore Joell Whitley (Magnolia, NJ/Triton Regional) ran the 55-meter dash in 7.55, just 0.22 seconds off an NCAA Championship provisional qualifying time.
For the men, Cunha finished 10th in the 400-meter dash, completing the race in 48.74 and meeting the NCAA Championship qualifying minimum. His time was just 0.67 seconds behind the top collegian in the meet. With a time of 7.99 during the 55-meter hurdles, Cunha was 0.20 seconds shy of matching a school record.
Senior Ajay Sisodia (Andover, MA/Andover) turned in an 11th-place showing in 1:05.09 during the 500-meter dash, coming within 0.13 seconds of a Wheaton standard, while he, Cunha, and freshmen Victor Martinez (Exeter, NH/Phillips Exeter Academy) and Michael Wright (Baldwin, NY/Uniondale) combined to place 12th in the 4x400-meter relay in 3:22.67.
Each of Wheaton's squads returns to action next weekend at the Armory Invitational, held at the New York City Armory on Friday and Saturday.
