RIT INVITATIONAL -- FULL RESULTS

ROCHESTER, N.Y. - The Daemen College men's track and field team took part in the RIT Invitational this afternoon. The event was hosted by Rochester Institute of Technology. It marks the second-straight year Daemen has taken part in the event.

First-place finishes by junior Rodney Corbin (Buffalo, N.Y.) and senior Sullivan Keller (Alden, N.Y.) and a school-record effort of sophomore Henry Moffitt (Sydney, Australia) in the high jump highlighted the afternoon for the Wildcats.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Corbin once again tuned in solid efforts during the sprint portion of the track events. He topped the field during the 60 meter dash with a time of 7.10 and placed second in the 200 meter dash with a time of 23.23. His first place finish in the 60 meters marks the seventh time over his three-year career he has placed first in that event.
  • The 500 meter run featured two Daemen runners, as freshman Dominic Clementi (Barker, N.Y.) finished 15th (1:15.20) and redshirt freshman Mason Storm (South Bristol, N.Y.) finished 18th (1:25.86).
  • The 1,000 meter run featured freshmen John Bruggman (Batavia, N.Y.) and Maximillian Moslow (Williamsville, N.Y.) and senior Josh Bodnar (Filmore, N.Y.). Bruggman finished 17th (2:49.55), Moslow finished 21st (2:59.89) and Bodnar came in 22nd (3:01.51).
  • Freshmen Aidan Van Slycke (Irving, N.Y.) and Alexander Reynolds (Olean, N.Y.) both took part in the one mile run. Van Slycke placed 38th with a time of 5:07.33, while Reynolds placed 43rd (5:47.49).
  • Moffitt and Keller highlighted the field events for Daemen.
  • Moffitt, who is also a member of the Daemen men's volleyball team, posted a program-record in the high jump for the second time this season. He placed second in the event today with a leap of 1.89 meters, eclipsing the record of 1.76 he set last month during the Brockport Season Opener. He also shares the outdoor record (1.83 m) for the high jump. Moffitt also took part in the long jump today and placed 10th (6.12 m).
  • Keller (Alden, N.Y.) turned in solid showings in both the shot put and the weight throw. He placed first out of 26 competitors in the shot put with a toss of 14.52 meters. It marks the first time over his storied four-year career that he has posted a first-place showing in the shot put during an indoor event. He went on to place sixth in the weight throw with a toss of 13.82 meters.
