COACH'S QUOTE
"Great to get started with the outdoor throwing events and get Rachel back in action. Zone rust for sure, but a lot of great marks too," said head coach Matt Belfield. "Samantha got better on each of her first five throws for the win. Second year in row at this meet. Eli had a nice PR and is 7th all-time at UVM. Conor opened really well in the javelin as well, as did Adriana in the discus."

HOW IT HAPPENED

Samantha Alexander won the discus with a throw of 40.83 meters.
Conor Moses was third in the javelin with a throw of 55.06 meters.
Adriana Rodriguez came in fourth in the discus with a throw of 36.20. She also placed 12th in the hammer throw with a throw of 33.65 meters.
Eli Lammi was seventh in the discus with a throw of 43.59 meters. The throw improves his personal best by over a meter and keeps him seventh all-time.
