MEDFORD -- Junior James Bradley (Atkinson, NH) hit the NCAA provisional mark of 6'7" in the high jump to highlight the Tufts men's indoor track & field team's performance in the first home meet of the season at the Gantcher Center this weekend. Tufts won the event convincingly with a score of 203 points, followed by UMass Lowell in second with a 140 score. Competition at the Tufts track started on Friday night and continued through Saturday, with 12 teams participating.

Bradley led a 1-2-3 Jumbo performance in the high jump. Freshman Frank DeSalvo (Naples, FL) and senior quad-captain Jeremy Arak (Ipswich, MA) both cleared 6'3" (1.91m) to follow Bradley. The Jumbos also got a first-place effort in the jumps from senior quad-captain Dan Marcy (Middletown, NY) with a best leap of 44' 8" (13.61m) in the triple.

The running events featured a 1-2 Tufts finish in the 3,000 meters. Sophomore Jesse Faller (Burlington, MA) won in 8:36.13, followed by senior quad-captain Dave Sorensen's (Dover, MA) 8:38.51 time.

Two Tufts relays were also best in the field, with the 4x4 crossing in 3:29.96 and the 4x8 running 8:25.46 for victory.
