O’Sullivan Wins Pole Vault at Penn Invitational

Jan 30 | Track & Field

Final Results

PHILADELPHIA – Rutgers track and field traveled to a familiar site this season, taking part in the Penn Invitational on Friday, Jan. 30 in Philadelphia. It marked the third visit to the Penn campus.

"We took a smaller group to Penn this weekend while some stayed back to train," said Bobby Farrell, director of track & field and cross country. "It was a strong weekend with some great personal records. Proud of how the squad locked in and competed."

Brian O'Sullivan edged his brother Kevin to finish first in the pole vault. The pair both cleared an identical height of 5.50m (18' 0.5") with Brian doing so with fewer misses as Kevin finished second. Anthony Conrey placed second in the long jump, recording a distance of 6.89m (22' 7.25").

Andrew Krall finished third in the weight throw to give the Scarlet Knights their fourth top-three finish on the men's side. Krall recorded a throw of 19.27m (63' 2.75").

There were four finishes in the top-three as well on the women's side led by Jenovia Logan who won the high jump, clearing a height of 1.73m (5' 8"). Tey'ana Ames finished second in the shot put with a throw of 14.67m (48' 1.75"), while Anna Barber took third in the weight with a mark of 16.74m (54' 11.25") and Ayotunde Folawewo placed third in the triple jump with a distance of 11.95m (39' 2.5").

Rutgers returns to action on Friday, Feb. 6 when it hosts the Scarlet Knights Open at the Nike Track and Field Center at the Armory in New York.
