PHILADELPHIA – Rutgers senior pole vaulter Kevin O'Sullivan improved on his school record, setting a new mark in his first action of the 2025-26 season. The Scarlet Knights returned to action for the Penn Select on Saturday, Jan. 10 at the Ott Center.

O'Sullivan owned the previous record which he set in 2025 at the Armory. His new school record cleared the bar at 18' 2.5 (5.5m) and was an Ott Center record as well.

"Great start to the year," said Bobby Farrell, director of track & field and cross country. "We were able to come out of the gate strong and get some NCAA top ranked performances. The field events were outstanding today. We're looking forward to next week when we open up the majority of the track events."

A dominant showing in the field events helped spark one of the program's best season-opening performances. The Scarlet Knights posted six first-place finishes and a number of marks near the top of the NCAA rankings.

Rutgers took the top spot in the triple, long and high jump events. Malachi Yehudah was first in the high jump, clearing 2.11m (6' 11"), while Sincere Robinson won the long jump. The Big Ten Champion and NCAA qualifier posted a mark of 7.77m (25' 6") in his first action in nearly a year after returning from injury. Donavan Anderson finished first in the triple jump with a leap of 15.89m (52' 1.75").

The Scarlet Knights also took second place in three field events on the men's side. Anthony Conrey finished runner up to Robinson in the long jump with a leap of 7.03m (23' 0.75"), while Daniel Arana followed Anderson in the triple jump with a distance of 15.33m (50' 3.50"). Brian O'Sullivan was second in the pole vault, clearing a height of 5.45m (17' 10.5").

Andrew Krall finished first in the weight throw, earning a mark of 19.43m (63' 9") and Celine-Jada Brown turned in the first-place effort on the women's side. Also coming back from a yearlong hiatus, Brown returned to her Big Ten Champion and NCAA qualifier form as she took first in the long jump with a distance of 6.45m (21' 2"). The distance from Brown set the Ott Center record for the event.

Also supporting the effort on the women's side was Jenovia Logan, who took second in the high jump with a height of 1.78m (5' 10"), followed by Alanna Woolfolk in third, clearing 1.72m (5' 7.75"). Tey'ana Ames finished second in the shot put with a throw of 15.45m (50' 8.25"), while Llyric Driscoll and Ayotunde Folawewo went 3-4 in the triple jump. Driscoll jumped 12.34m (40' 6"), followed by Folawewo with a distance of 12.33m (40' 5.50").

Anna Barber finished third in the weight throw, recording a distance of 16.70m (54' 9.5").

Rutgers will make a return trip to the Ott Center next week for the Quaker Invitational on Saturday, Jan. 17.
