A LOOK AT THE JOHNNIES: Saint John's won the windy, 10-team Carleton Relays last Saturday (April 23) in Northfield. SJU won five events and totaled 27 top-five marks/times on the day for 209.50 points, ahead of Gustavus Adolphus in second (106).

The Johnnies placed the top three on the podium in two events. SJU claimed the top three heights in the high jump, led by junior Maguire Petersen (Hutchinson, Minn.) at 1.95 meters. Freshman Alec Ungar (Eden Prairie, Minn./Chanhassen) was second (1.90 meters) and senior Sam Rademacher (Marshall, Minn.) was third (1.90 meters). Ungar also placed second in the long jump (6.45 meters) and freshman Anthony Thurk (St. Bonifacius, Minn./Waconia) followed in fourth (5.91 meters).

Junior Elijah Wade (Waco, Texas/Vanguard College Prep) won the triple jump with a season-best mark of 13.75 meters, an inch ahead of senior Michael Wallace (Nassau, Bahamas/St. Anne's) in second place (13.73 meters). Junior Alex Crnkovich (Omaha, Neb./Mount Michael Benedictine) was third (12.85 meters). 

Junior Brett Hague (Brainerd, Minn.) won the javelin with a personal-best throw of 56.80 meters, the 20th-best distance in NCAA Division III this season. Petersen was 12 feet behind in second (53.05 meters) and freshman Max Lelwica (Brainerd, Minn.) was fifth (44.97 meters).

SJU's 4x100-meter relay team (Jack Young, Kevin Arthur, Brady Labine, Seth Cattoor) won the event in 42.57 seconds.

The Johnnies recorded three of the top five heights in the pole vault. Senior Shawn Schindler (Maple Grove, Minn.) tied for first place at 4.12 meters, while sophomore Dan Eickhoff (St. Cloud, Minn./Cathedral) and junior Mason DeGross (New Prague, Minn.) were fourth and fifth, respectively, at 3.97 meters. Sophomore Max Doom (Edina, Minn.) was sixth (3.82 meters).

With the wind in his face, junior Kevin Arthur (Champlin, Minn./Champlin Park) took second in the 200-meter dash (22.55) and senior Mack Maroushek (Red Wing, Minn.) was second in the 400-meter hurdles (59.87).
