The Muhlenberg track and field teams wrapped up their 2025-26 season by competing in Widener's Final Qualifier Meet and the AARTFC Outdoor Championships at Ursinus.

The Mules brought home two medals from the AARTFC meet, with junior Christopher Short winning the 400 meters and senior Avery McNulty tying for third in the high jump.

Short (pictured above bottom), who came in third in the 400 at Widener, finished in 48.03 seconds to win by a comfortable margin in a field of 29 runners. The gold medal was the first for Short at the AARTFC Championships; he earned silver in both the 200 and 400 indoors this year. He is the first Muhlenberg men's track athlete ever to take gold at the AARTFC meet (two have won in field events).

McNulty (pictured above top) earned her third career AARTFC medal after winning the high jump indoors in 2024 and tying for third outdoors in 2023. She cleared 5-3 at the AARTFC and also placed third at Widener.

Other Mules who qualified to compete in the two meets were junior Sultan Almosbeh (400), freshman Kadon Harris (400 hurdles and high jump), juniors Raam Ravishankar (800) and David Seel (800), freshman Niklas Haraldsson (800), freshman Michael Bugler (triple jump), junior Maggie Holderith (10,000 meters), and sophomores Caitlyn D'Addieco (discus) and Kelly Stephen (shot put and discus). Haraldsson set a personal best of 1:59.16 while winning his heat at Widener.
