ADA- The Wilmington College Men’s and Women’s track and field teams travelled to Ohio Northern University Friday and Saturday to compete in a Last Chance Meet. The meet was non-scored, allowing the participants a chance to better their national standing, in an attempt to be chosen for the NCAA DIII Indoor Championship next week.
Only four Fightin’ Quakers travelled to the meet, juniors Lauren Stacy (Bethel, OH/Western Brown), Pierce Burnam (New Richmond, OH/New Richmond), Kalvin Butts (St. John’s, MI/St. John’s), and Antone Truss (Yellow Springs, OH/Yellow Springs). Of the four, only Truss posted a finish that broke into the NCAA DIII top-ten in his respective event. Because of this, he will likely be the only Fightin’ Quaker to qualify for the NCAA DIII Indoor Championship.
