Galloway, N.J. – Eight Stockton University men's track & field team members earned NJAC All-Conference recognition for the Spring 2021 season. Stockton finished third out of 10 teams at the NJAC Championships on May 9.
Keith Holland (Bayville/Central Regional) collected his sixth consecutive NJAC First Team nod in the pole vault after winning the event (4.70m) for the sixth time (three outdoor, three indoor).
Hunter Daly snagged his third straight NJAC First Team spot by winning the high jump (2.03m) at the conference meet for the third time in a row (two outdoor, one indoor).
Kyle Navalance (Toms River/TR North) completed the trio of NJAC First Team honorees for Stockton. Navalance won the 3000m steeplechase at the NJAC Championships (9:25.32) and broke the 23-year-old school record in the process. Earlier this spring, Navalance qualified for an NJAC First Team accolade in cross country.
Four Ospreys who were NJAC Second Team after finishing as runners-up in an event at the NJAC Championships were
Daniel Do (Galloway/Absegami) in the 5000m run,
Matthew Carter (Mays Landing/Oakcrest) placing behind only Holland in the pole vault,
Darren Wan (Egg Harbor Twp./EHT) in the hammer throw and
William Gross (Marlton/Cherokee) in the shot put.
Combining indoor and outdoor track & field, Wan earned his fourth career all-conference honor overall and second in the hammer throw while Carter notched his fourth career all-conference award in the pole vault.
Do added his first track & field all-conference recognition to three career NJAC First Team accolades in cross country. Gross, a transfer from fellow NJAC school Rutgers-Camden, procured his first all-conference selection.
Max Klenk (Somerdale/Sterling) garnered all-conference status for the first time with a third-place finish in the decathlon at the conference meet for an NJAC Honorable Mention position.
