2011 NCAA East Preliminary Round Championship Central
PRINCETON, N.J. -- Fifty-four male Ivy League athletes will compete in 17 events in the East region of the 2011 NCAA Division I Men's Outdoor Track and Field Preliminary Championship Competition on May 26-28, hosted by Indiana University in Bloomington, Ind.
The top 12 finishers in each event, along with the top 12 finishers from the West region competition, will advance to the NCAA Championships, held June 8-11 in Des Moines, Iowa.
Seven double-qualifiers will represent the Ivy League, including the Princeton quintet of Austin Holimon (400m, 4x400m), Tom Hopkins (400m, 4x400m), Mike Eddy (400m, 4x400m), Russell Dinkins (800m, 4x400m) and Donn Cabral (3,000m steeplechase, 5,000m). Cornell's Steven Bell qualified in both the long jump and triple jump while Columbia's Brendan Martin will race in both the 5,000m and 10,000m runs.
Fifteen Ivies enter competition ranked in the top 12 of their respective events, including three No. 2 positions. Freshman Maalik Reynolds of Penn, the 2011 Ivy League Indoor and Outdoor high jump champion enters the NCAA postseason with the second best mark in the country -- 2.28m. He trails only Mississippi's Ricky Roberts who achieved a season-best mark of 2.29m.
Defending javelin national champion Craig Kinsley of Brown is seeded second with a season-best mark of 76.33, trailing only Western Kentucky's Ignacio Guerra (78.69m).
