Jason Lewis (Arizona State) and Walter Henning (LSU) both automatically qualified for the NCAA Championships this
weekend. Lewis and Henning both set new school records of 22.04m
(72-03.75) in their debut meets of the season. That throw added more
than three feet to the personal best Lewis set last season, while
Henning added one inch to his personal best from last season. Other
big improvements on the men's side were by Zac Brouilette (Iowa State)
and Dimitrios Fylladitakis (UTEP).
Stevi Large (Akron) had the top women's performance over the weekend. Large moved
closer to her personal best from last season with a throw of 21.25m
(69-08.75). Freshman Victoria Flowers (Connecticut) had one of the
more impressive marks from the weekend. Just a true freshman, Flowers
threw a new personal best of 20.30m (66-07.25). Flowers set a high
school national record of 62-02.00 last season while a senior at
Classical High School in Providence, Rhode Island.
