Point Park's Morris leaps to RSC Men's Indoor Field Athlete of the Week
FLORENCE, Ky. -- Point Park University's Michael Morris set a school record in the high jump to claim River States Conference Men's Indoor Field Athlete of the Week for Feb. 13-19.
Morris, from Allentown, N.J., had a height of 2.00 meters in the high jump at the Kent State Tuneup Feb. 18. That just missed the NAIA national qualifying standard of 2.01, a difference of just 0.01 meters.
He placed fifth at the NCAA Division I Kent State meet. The next competition will be March 18 for the first meet of the outdoor season, the Juniata Invitational.
