CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind. – Kenyon College track and field member Tanner Orr became the Lords' first student-athlete to ever win the long jump event at the North Coast Athletic Conference Championship on Saturday afternoon.
 
His jump of 21 feet, 11 ¾ inches not only clinched first place, it also broke the previous Kenyon record of 21 feet, 10 ¼ inches set by Perry Thompson in 1971.
 
That performance notched 10 points for the Lords, who finished with 24 by meet's end and a ninth-place conference standing.
 
Jordan Potter secured the team's next-best mark. During the shot put event, he threw 46 feet, 6 ¾ inches which slotted him third and tallied Kenyon six more points.
 
The Lords added two more points the rest of the way. In the 1-mile run, Tommy Johnson claimed eighth with a time of 4:25.27. The quartet of Kevin Towle, Ar'Reon Watson, Qiyam Stewart and Orr added another eighth-place finish in the 4x200 meter relay crossing the finish line in 1:36.21.
 
Other marks included Kyle Rose's 14th-place spot in the 5,000-meter run and Vincent Lewis finishing in 15th in the same race.
 
At the conclusion of the championship meet, Potter and both Tanner and Colton Orr earned All-NCAC honors for their efforts.
 
Kenyon will now take a little break before opening its outdoor season on March 16-17 at the UNC-Charlotte 49ers Classic.
