Six Top-Ten Finishes for Bentley Men at George Davis Invitational, including Two by Uthman-Olukokun

LOWELL, Mass. – Members of the Bentley University men's outdoor track team recorded ten top ten finishes Saturday during the George Davis Invitational at UMass-Lowell, including two by freshman Edy-Elliot Uthman-Olukokun (West Warwick, R.I./West Warwick HS).

Uthman-Olukokun was sixth of 41 in the 100 meters, finishing in 11.34 seconds, and was also ninth of 35 in the long jump, clearing 20 feet, 8 inches. Immediately in front of him in the latter event was sophomore Anthony Charter (Hubbardston/Quabbin Reg. HS), with a throw of 20 feet, 8.5 inches.

Freshman Sean Nee (West Yarmouth/Dennis-Yarmouth Reg. HS) was seventh of 43 in the 800 meters, his time of 1:58.26 a new personal best by about six seconds. In the two mile, senior Craig Robinson (Scarborough, Maine/Scarborough HS) moved to sixth on Bentley's all-time list and placed ninth of 46 overall in 9:35.47.

Also cracking the top ten was sophomore Kyle Sullivan (Burlington/Burlington HS) in the javelin, his throw of 148 feet, 6 inches putting him tenth of 23. Close behind him were a pair of freshman teammates, Jordan Morrissey (Naugatuck, Conn./Holy Cross HS) and Wes Dupray (Rowley/ St. John's Prep), each of whom set a new PR. Morrissey was 11th (147'4") and Dupray's 146'3" was good for 13th.

Senior Bryan Carton (Norwell/Norwell HS) and junior Conor Higgins (Randolph, N.J./Randolph HS) were 11th in the 400 and 800, respectively. Carton finished in 52.18 seconds, and Higgins' time was 1:59.13. In the 100, junior Eric Kennedy (West Hartford, Conn./Northwest Catholic HS) was 12th of 41 (11.48) and senior John Drago (Avon, Conn./Avon HS) was 13th in the two mile (9:57.06).

Sophomore John Chiulli (Lynbrook, N.Y./Lynbrook HS) had a pair of 15th-place finishes, in the shot put (36'2.25") and in the discus (119'11"). Both of those throws improved on his existing PR, by nine and three inches, respectively.
