The Central College men’s and women’s track and field squads had six members earn All-Central Region outdoors for the outdoor season from the USTFCCCA. To be named All-Region, an athlete must either be ranked in the top-5 of an individual event in the region or be part of a top-3 relay team.
Brock Lewis led the way with a pair of all-region performances in the triple jump and long jump. Sam Beatty achieved the feat in the high jump and Caleb Silver accomplished it in the 3,000-meter steeplechase.
Kiki Pingel also had two events in which she was all-region, earning the honors in the heptathlon and 100-meter hurdles. Mary Gray also was an all-region performer in the heptathlon as Gillian Streit was recognized for his discus throwing.
All six of the all-region performers for Central will be competing in the NCAA Division III Outdoor Track and Field Championships this weekend in Greensboro, N.C.
