Brother Jasper: Day 1

Sophomore Sean Ellman competed in the 35-pound weight throw on Friday afternoon at Draddy Gymnasium in Day 1 of the Brother Jasper Invitational at Manhattan College.

Sean had a strong day!

After a rough start last week at Yale -- he participated in the meet despite any event-specific practice -- Sean bounced back with a solid day today at Manhattan.

His throw progression today went like this: 9.71 meters, 9.33 meters, 10.21 meters.

Except for his second throw, where his footwork got a little tangled, it was a good work day for Sean.

He only practiced once this week, in the racquetball court in the back end of the McCann Center, but that practice led to a good improvement from last week. Good to see!

Check back later in the weekend for Day 2 results from Draddy. Don't expect much, literally. With final exams looming, we only have a few athletes going.
