Holder Tabbed NE10 Field Athlete and Rookie of the Week

North Attleboro, Mass. - After a standout weekend at the historic Armory, has been named the Northeast 10 Field Athlete and Rookie of the Week, announced by the league office on Monday.

Holder won the long jump and triple jump last week at the Dr. Sander Scorcher at the Armory, putting up an NCAA provisional mark in the triple with a 14.54m mark. That number currently ranks No. 5 in Division II and broke a 50-year-old Adelphi school record. That mark was set by Curtis Goode in the 1976 season, under the direction of Head Coach Ron Bazil.

His competition was a Division I heavy field, as the long jump open featured athletes from West Point, Cornell and Wagner, while the triple jump invitational saw competitiors from Cornell, Brown and Harvard.

The track and field programs will be back in action on Friday, Jan. 30 when they go to Boston for the John Thomas Terrier Classic. Additionally, some members may attend the Millrose Games, if entries are accepted.
