NCAA Championships: D2 Results

25 May 2008 at 18:00 - 0 comments - link
This season has been a very competitive season for D2 men.  Entering the competition, Robert Klenk (Ashland) led the nation with a personal best of nearly 67 meters.  Hot on his tracks was Dan Raithel (Central Missouri).  Both, however, struggled to start the competition on Friday.  Entering finals, Raithel led with a best of 62.07 meters.  Things picked up in the fifth roung when Klenk tossed 64 meters for the lead.  Raithel then responded with a new personal best mark of 66.95m (219-08).  Klenk improved in the final round, but it was not enough to take the title away from Raithel.  Aaron Falk (Hillsdale) also threw a personal best in the final round to move from eigth to third place.

The women's competition was just as competitive.  Jessice Selby-Tallman (Missouri Souther) took the early lead in the first round, but heading into finals, Audrey Oswald (Humboldt State) was leading with Selby-Tallman and Michelle Stark (Ashland) all within one foot of each other.  Oswald extended her lead in the finals before Selby-Tallman unleashed a near personal best throw in the final round to take the lead.  Oswald also improved on her last throw, but had to settle for second place.
