DANVILLE, Kentucky - Brady Vilvens leaped 6' 8" to win the high jump and highlight the Wilmington College men's track & field team's performance at the windy Centre Invitational on Saturday.
The Wilmington High School alumnus's mark in the high jump earned the Quakers 10 points and currently stands as second-best in all of NCAA Division III.
In track events, Tate Yoder crossed the finish line in 15:25.20 to finish runner-up in the 5,000-meter run while Noah Tobin's time of 4:11.09 placed him seventh in the 1,500-meter run.
