Emory University claimed conference championships in five events
and qualified five runners for the NCAA Division III Championships
during a successful 2014 outdoor track and field campaign.
The Eagles competed at the NCAA Outdoor Championships for the
first time since the 2012 campaign, and sent its largest contingent
of athletes to the meet since the 2008 season. At the meet,
hosted by Ohio Wesleyan University in Delaware, Ohio, the
Eagles’ 4x400-meter relay team of junior Zachary
Rosenberg, sophomore Adam Rabushka,
sophomore Maxwell Hoberman and junior Gui
Silva set a school record with a time of 3:13.53, placing
11th overall in the event. In addition, Silva
competed individually in the 400-meter dash, finishing
16th in the preliminaries.
Earlier in the season, the Eagles finished third at the 2014
University Athletic Association (UAA) Outdoor Track and Field
Championships, scoring 141.5 points to place behind only first
place Washington University (215 points) and second-place Carnegie
Mellon University (166 points). It marked the team’s
best finish at the conference outdoor championships since the 2010
campaign, and the 14th top-three finish for the Eagles
in 27 years of UAA competition.
Emory claimed UAA Championships in five events, also the most by
an Eagles’ squad since the 2010 campaign. Individual
champions for Emory included junior James Bassen
in the javelin throw, senior Mike Moserowitz in
the long jump, Rabushka in the 110-meter hurdles, sophomore
Jacob Seigel in the discus throw and Silva in the
400-meter dash. The Eagles totaled all-conference honors in
eight individual events and two relays during the meet.
The Eagles finished the regular season ranked second among
men’s squads in the USTFCCCA South/ Southeast Region
Poll.
Emory competed in three other scored meets during the 2014 outdoor
campaign. The Eagles opened the season by claiming third out
of 23 teams at the annual Emory Invitational, and followed that
performance with a second-place finish out of 14 teams at the Emory
Classic. Later in the campaign, the Eagles won the six-team
Mountain Laurel Invitational, hosted by the University of the South
in Sewanee, Tennessee.
