CONWAY, S.C. -- Fresh off an All-American performance in the
pentathlon at the NCAA Indoor Championships last weekend, senior
Jared Engelking (Westborough, MA) traveled with the rest of the
Tufts men's track & field team to South Carolina this week to open
the 2010 outdoor season at Coastal Carolina University's Shamrock
Invitational. Prepping for the decathlon, Engelking competed in
several events and ran an NCAA provisional qualifying time of 14.61
seconds in the 110-meter hurdles.
While also competing in the javelin, discus, and pole vault,
Engelking's sixth-place finish in the 110 hurdles was the top Tufts
finish at the meet. He ran a time of 14.7 seconds in the preliminaries,
the eighth best of 16 qualifiers for the final. The NCAA provisional
mark is 14.88 seconds. He improved his time in the finals. Engelking
also threw the javelin 174'6" (53.20m), heaved the discus 134'9"
(41.08m), and cleared 14'7 1/4" (4.45m) in the pole vault. He was 17th
in both throws, and eighth in the PV.
Among several Jumbos who made the trip, junior Jeff Ragazzini
(Wilton, CT) produced two top-15 finishes. He was ninth in the 1,500
meters with a 4:04.22 finishing time. In the 5,000 meters, he crossed
the finish line in 15:29.19 for 14th place. In the 800 meters, NCAA
Indoors competitor Billy Hale (Menlo Park, CA) ran 1:56.62 for
11th place and senior Jason Hanrahan (Westport, CT) was 15th
(1:57.64).
The Shamrock Invitational was a non-scoring meet.
