DELAWARE - The College of Wooster outdoor track and field team saw three All-Ohio finishes, including a school record for the second consecutive week, to cap off the All-Ohio Outdoor Championships hosted by Ohio Wesleyan University.
 
Senior Rob Mays III took down the school's hammer throw record for the second straight meet, improving upon last week with a mark of 170 feet, 11 inches and besting his own toss by over 1.5 feet. The finish was good for runner-up in the event and All-Ohio honors. 
 
The two other All-Ohio performances came from senior Evie Sanford and the men's 4x100-meter relay team. Sanford was the runner-up in the shot put with a throw of 40 feet, 11 inches, which she achieved on her last attempt of the afternoon and landed just 0.5 inches off the winning mark.
 
Meanwhile, the 4x100-meter relay team jump-started Saturday's events as junior William Harris II, sophomore Franklin Adu-Baah, junior Cooper Norwell and sophomore Dasebre Ofosu-Manu combined for third place and their All-Ohio accolades after crossing the finish line in a Wooster season-best 42.08, just 0.07 seconds behind the runner-up team. 
 
Mays barely missed out on a second All-Ohio honor in the discus throw. The senior still turned heads in the event, however, with a career-best mark of 142 feet, 11 inches, for a fourth-place finish. That mark vaults Mays into the program top-10 list for discus throw, landing at eighth. 
 
Sophomore Francis Nwokonko turned in another fourth-place finish in the triple jump, just two inches behind an All-Ohio finish, with a career-best leap of 44 feet, 6.25 inches. Nwokonko now finds himself on the program top-10 list as well, coming in ninth in the triple jump. 
 
The field events proved to be a bright spot for the Wooster women thanks to Sanford and sophomore Elizabeth Theobald. Sanford capped off her All-Ohio Championships with a toss of 121 feet, 8 inches and fifth place in the discus throw. Theobald took sixth in the javelin throw, hurling the javelin 111 feet, 3 inches on her last attempt, which improved her mark by over 10 feet in the event. 
 
First-year Eliana Cozzie, sophomore Emeili Tarpy, senior Izzy Cozzie and junior Claire Davis led the way on the track for the women, placing eighth as a team in the 4x100-meter relay in 51.30 seconds.
 
The other relay team of Tarpy, senior Amy Gabrovsek, junior Ellie Fox and Izzy Cozzie combined for 12th in the 4x400-meter relay in a time of 4:26.32. Fox also found herself with a career-best time of 1:04.33 in the 400-meter run, finishing 13th overall. 
 
A trio of sophomores narrowly missed qualifying to the finals of the 110-meter hurdles and the 100-meter prelims. Adu-Baah was on the wrong end of a tiebreaker to the tune of nine-thousandths, barely missing the 100 finals in ninth place in a career-best 11.05.
 
Ofosu-Manu was not far behind in 11th place in his own career best of 11.11. Nwokonko finished 10th in the 110 hurdles in 15.70. Ofosu-Manu did the 100-200 double and placed 10th in the 200-meter run in 22.44. 
 
Senior Essaie Mezmur finished 11th in the long jump with a mark of 19 feet, 6.75 inches. The men's 4x400-meter relay team of senior Zane DeMercurio, first-year Tyler Frye, senior Reese Johnson and first-year Max Kollhoff finished off the afternoon in 11th place in a time of 3:38.55. 
 
As a team, the Wooster women placed 10th of 14 teams with 16 total points while the men finished 11th, tallying 24 points. Host Ohio Wesleyan captured the women's team title with a leading total of 173.75 points and Baldwin Wallace University won the men's title with 151.5 points. 
 
Wooster returns to the track on April 18, at the Duane Gomez Invitational, hosted by Kenyon College.
