COMPLETE RESULTS

Chester, Pa. (Mar. 31, 2012) - The Alvernia University Men's and Women's Track and Field teams competed at the Danny Curran Inviational on Fri. Mar. 30 and Sat. Mar. 31.  Senior Brian Nerney (Middletown, NJ/Red Bank Catholic) competing in his first meet of the season, earned a tie for first place in the high jump with a mark of 1.90m, earning a MAC qualifying mark in the process.

Sophomore Andrew Martin (Thornton, Pa./Garnet Valley) paced the Crusaders in the other vertical jump with his sixth place finish in the pole vault, breaking the school record in the process.  Martin teamed up with fellow freshmen, Brandon Young (Baltimore, Md./Loyola Blakefield), Tyrone McCloud (Lindenwold, NJ/Lindenwold) and Indeo Ragsdale (Lindenwold, NJ/Lindenwold) to run the 4x100m relay which placed fifth.
 
Ragsdale had a great day of his own, setting two new school records in both the 110m and the 400m hurdles placing seventh in both races.  Freshman Young also performed well in the triple jump, earning a fifth place finish in the event.

Coach Kilgore was impressed with the performance of the men's team, “Brian had a nice opening meet in the high jump.  If he can continue to sure up his run he'll be able to get some pretty high bars.  Indeo ran two really nice hurdle races and Andrew competed very well over both days."

The Crusaders have this weekend off for Easter and will be back in action on April 14 at the WCU Invitational, hosted by West Chester University.
