Haude Named All-Region By USTFCCCA

AMHERST, N.Y. – Daemen College women's indoor track and field athlete Taylor Haude (Rochester, N.Y.) has been named a 2018 Division II All-East Region honoree by the United States Track and Field Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA).  The top-five individuals in each event from each of the eight regions (Atlantic, Central, East, Midwest, South, South Central, Southeast, and West) earned the All-Region distinction, and the official announcement was made in a press release from USTFCCCA headquarters in New Orleans, La. yesterday afternoon.

Haude, a 5-foot-7 sophomore, earned the All-Region accolade in the pole vault, which she set a new team record in this season on two different occasions.  Haude matched her career-high and school-record effort on January 27th at the Brockport Golden Eagle Multi and Invitational, placing eighth out of 17 competitors with a jump of 3.05 meters.  Two weeks later on February 10th, she finished second at the Highlander Invitational tying her career-best and school record once again.

At the Brockport Golden Eagle Invitational on February 17th, Haude established a new benchmark for the first time after clearing 3.21 meters, besting the previous record of 3.05 meters to finish eighth out of 21 entrants.  In her most recent performance at the East Coast Conference Championships last weekend, Haude earned the Championship title in the pole vault.  On her third and final attempt, she cleared 3.26 meters, besting her school-record for the second consecutive week, earning 10 points towards Daemen's total points.  

Haude and the rest of the Daemen track and field teams resume action when the outdoor portion of the schedule gets underway with the Geneseo Early Spring Invitational on Saturday, March 31.
