The Beginning of a New Era..

I know I haven't posted in some time guys, but midterms have been killing me.

Anyway, back to what is important: Track B-W Track

Today's topic? Throwing... Far

I remember one of the first times I spoke with Kevin Phipps. It was at an indoor meet during last season and I was starting to become acquainted with everyone. The throwers were getting ready for the weight throw and I caught Phipps in between throws to ask him a question.

Me: "What are you gonna throw today, Phipps?"
Kevin: "Far."

This was all he said. Since this former All-American has taken over as the Throws Coach at Baldwin-Wallace, this is what he is getting our throwers to do.

B-W throwers: Dominated the OAC by Scoring a Total of 72 Points at the Conference Meet

But wait, there's more! There are a few events that we will be picking up outdoor come spring and our Throwers are especially looking forward to continuing their dominance of the OAC.

Are you a Supan Fan?

The throwers look to pick up even more points in the Discus, the Hammer and the Javelin. Junior Mitch Supan broke, now coach, Kevin Phipps's record last year in the Disc and is looking to qualify for Nationals yet again. His partner in crime Zac Marinucci is looking to put the rest of the OAC on the pavement in the Shot along with Senior Miles Moore. Junior Jake Buckey is looking forward to dropping Jav bombs across the Conference. The list goes on and on including athletes Tina Perrine, Leslie Purnell and newcomer Danielle Torrence. Need I say more?

This B-W Track team, under the ingenious recruiting of Assistant Coach Eric Schmuhl, has assembled a perennial powerhouse of throwers that can compete with the best of the best. Good luck to all those throwers looking to qualify for Nationals this Saturday at Mount Union.
