Summary

Biography

2025-26: 2x USTFCCCA All-American 2x USTFCCCA All-Region
Stepped into the ring at nine different meets in his indoor season, focusing on both the shot put and weight throw. His season best and personal bests were two in the same, coming from a 17.26m shot put recorded at the PNC Lenny Lyles Open. He then recorded his 21.52m weight throw personal record at the NCAA Indoor Championships, earning him a fourth place finish and his first All-American honor. In his outdoor season, while he still had a pair of shot put attempts, his focus shifted to the hammer throw, where he had a personal record of 65.69m at the Adidas Trojan Challenge. That effort got him into the NCAA Outdoor Championships, where he would throw 65.60m, placing him eighth, earning him his second All-American honor, and contributing to the team title.
