Frantom and Hempy Notch All-American HonorsPublished by
Taylor Frantom and Kristen Hempy earned NAIA All-American honors on the first day of the NAIA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in Marion, Indiana. Frantom finished sixth in the women's pole vault with a personal best of 3.55 meters (11-7.75). Hempy finished sixth in the javelin with a personal record of 42.88 (140-8).
Hempy's mark is the third best in the Warrior record books and moves her into second place among Westmont's top performers.
"It was so great to have the 42.88 PR," said Hempy. "When I was here two years ago for the open javelin, it did not go well. I had a dud first throw and then I had a good one but fouled. Then on my last throw, I got all nervous and tense. I was pretty upset.
