JAMESTOWN, N.D. – For the third time in four weeks, jumper Aaron Teigen swept his two events and the University of Mary men's outdoor track & field team tallied six total crowns at the 2015 Al Cassell Relays.
Teigen, named the NSIC men's field athlete of the week after the Mary home event on April 12, once again claimed both the triple jump and the long jump. The senior from Rugby, N.D., won the triple jump with a leap of 14.73 meters, an NCAA division II provisional qualifying mark. Is was the lone Mary provo mark of the day. Teigen won the long jump with a distance of 7.08 meters.
Fellow senior Jordan Washington won the 400 meter dash in a time of 49.23 seconds, just .15 seconds ahead of the runner-up.
Jay Cooper captured the 110 meter hurdles in a time of 15.34. He just missed matching Teigen with two wins when he placed second in the 400 meter hurdles in 54.28 seconds.
The Marauders claimed the 4x100 meter relay behind Cooper, Corey Berner, Taren Staudinger and Jordan Washington.
Jensen Roseboom cleared 14' 7" in the pole vault for the Marauders final win on the day.
Another strong performance was turned in by Berner. In addition to his win in the 4x400 meter relay, Berner placed second in both the 100 meter dash and the 200 meter dash.
The Marauders will compete at two events next weekend, first at North Dakota State
Friday, May 1, and the Ron Masanz meet at MSU Moorhead on Saturday, May 2.
