Christian Velishek and Jay Hendrycks made their last appearance of the 2019 outdoor season one that offers promise for the future. Velishek, a freshman, did a 6-5 in the High Jump to finish third at the Last Chance Meet May 16 at La Crosse, Wis. Hendrycks, a junior, finished third as well with a 159-9 throw in the Javelin. They were the top efforts by the HU crew in the nonscoring event. 

Eric Dols was fourth in the Hammer with a 181-5 throw. The senior is one of just eight D-III throwers to go over 200 feet in this event this spring and is expected to be in the field for the NCAA D-III Outdoor Championships when everything is announced early next week. Mitchell Maday was fifth in the Discus (153-10) and Dols was eighth in the Shot Put (51-3) at La Crosse. For complete meet results, click here.
