Senior Cooper Folkestad and first-year thrower Elijah Hayes earned USTFCCCA North All-Region honors for their performances in the shot put and javelin.
Day 1 of the MIAC Championship Meet belonged to a pair of Cobber athletes on different ends of the collegiate spectrum – and both athletes used their final attempt on Friday to come away with event wins. Cooper Folkestad and Elijah Hayes waited until their sixth, and final, attempts to win the shot put and javelin.
It was a good day for PR performances for the Cobbers at the windy NDSU Tune-Up Meet in Fargo. Concordia had numerous athletes record personal-best marks in the final competition before the MIAC Championship Meet.
The steeplechase and shot put crews led Concordia at the Hamline Invitational. The Cobbers had three athletes in each event post a Top 10 finish at the first full outdoor meet of the year. The two events were responsible for six of Concordia’s 16 Top 10 finishes at the meet.
