Jayhawks Shine in Southeastern Ohio, Taylor Breaks School Record
The Muskegon Community College Jayhawks opened the weekend with strong performances in southeastern Ohio, taking advantage of great weather and delivering standout results in the throwing events.
Leading the way was Jamari Taylor, who turned in a remarkable performance against a highly competitive NCAA Division II field. Taylor finished second overall with a throw of 52.62 meters, breaking the previous school record by an impressive 9.5 meters. His mark not only set a new program standard but also places him No. 2 across all NJCAA divisions this season.
With the performance, Taylor has officially qualified for the NJCAA Championships in New Mexico, solidifying his position as one of the top throwers in the country.
Joining him at the national meet will be Angelo Chandler, who has also earned his spot in the NJCAA Championships in the discus. Chandler currently ranks No. 18 in the nation, continuing to build momentum as the season progresses.
The Jayhawks' strong showing highlights the program's continued growth and competitiveness on the national stage, with multiple athletes now preparing to represent Muskegon Community College at the NJCAA Championships.
