The top event for the Mules was the men's high jump, where sophomore Sean McNeil and freshman Kadon Harris finished fourth and seventh, respectively. McNeil (pictured above left) cleared 6-4 to move into a tie for fifth place on the all-time performance list. He needed a third and final attempt to clear 6-2 and set a new indoor personal best, then made it over the bar at 6-4 (a regional-qualifying mark) on his second try. Harris shook off his first miss by jumping 6-2 to enter the performance list in a tie for seventh place.

Other highlights for the Mules:

• Freshman Reese Davis ran the 60-meter hurdles in 8.98 seconds, becoming only the fourth Mule to break 9 seconds. He was the top Division III finisher, coming in 19th overall.

• Junior Christopher Short improved his personal best in the 60 meters from 7.29 to 7.22, entering the performance list in 10th place. In an event in which he holds the school record, Short won his heat of the 200, coming in ninth overall and third among Division III runners.
