Two pole vaulters and the men’s 4×400 relay team met ECAC/IC4A qualifying standards for the Binghamton track and field team at the Sam Howell Invitational last Friday and Saturday at Princeton.

Senior John Slaven highlighted the outing with a 15-9 mark in the pole vault, which met IC4A standards and earned him second place at the non-team-scoring event.

Seniors Mike Jennings, Temi Bajulaiye, Zach Keefer and Casey Gilbert also reached the IC4A standard with their 3:19:49 finish in the 4×400 relay. The quartet finished sixth overall.

Junior Camille Ginyard met the ECAC standard with a jump of 11-9 ¾ in the women’s pole vault. The jump landed her in third place.

Junior Alexis Murray and freshman Tori Shaffer rounded out the group of Binghamton athletes who placed third or better at the event, earning the bronze in the triple jump and high jump, respectively.

The Bearcats are scheduled to compete in the Army Quad Meet at noon this Saturday at West Point’s Shea Stadium.
