MU hammers its way to All-American honors

University of Missouri’s Chris Rohr finished fourth in the hammer throw for his sixth All-American honor and  Krishna Lee finished fifth in the women’s hammer throw for All-American honors at the NCAA D-I Outdoor Track and Field Championships this past weekend in Fayetteville, AR.

Rohr’s best was his fourth attempt reaching 226’6′.  Lee first throw of 206’7′ was her best and the highest of any Big 12 thrower.  That would be enough to grab Lee her third All-American honor. 

Tigers who came up short in the finals included:  Brian Hancock who placed 11th in the pole vault and Kaela Rorvig who  finished 20th overall with 4997 points over the two day Hepthatlon event.
