Out of 25 competitors, Belleville native and Mount St Mary’s University freshman Aidan Crawford threw a personal best throw of 47.08m in Annapolis, Maryland to capture the silver medal in discus at the Navy Outdoor Invitational.
The throw gives Crawford the top spot in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference discus rankings and number eighth all time in discus on the Mount St Mary Mountaineer’s top-10 list.
The former Eastside Secondary School student is also winning in the classroom where he was one of only 29 freshmen students to make The Mount’s President’s List with a perfect 4.0 GPA studying Business Administration.
Next action for Crawford is the JMU Invitational in Harrisonburg, Virginia on the campus of James Madison University.
