Seaver, Jarrett Have Stellar Performances at NCAA East Prelims
Greensboro, N.C. - Youngstown State senior thrower John Seaver finished 13th in the shot put on Friday night at the NCAA East Preliminary Round. Seaver was one spot from qualifying for the NCAA Championships at the Belk Track on the campus of North Carolina A&T in Greensboro, N.C.

It was also a good night for sprinter Ciara Jarrett who advanced to tomorrow's quarterfinals in the 200-meter dash with a time of 24.10 seconds. Jarrett had the 18th best time out of the 24 qualifiers. Jarrett will run tomorrow night at 7:35 p.m. trying to move into the top 12 to advance to the NCAA Championships.

Seaver placed 13th with a career-best toss of 17.84 meters, but was among the top 12 qualifiers until the second-to-last throw. Purdue's Coy Blair threw 18.10 meters tying Liberty's Ryan Smith for 11th place to knock Seaver out of the qualifiers for the national meet.

He had throws of 16.60 meters, 16.67 meters, 17.33 meters, 17.16 meters and a foul to go along with his mark of 17.84 meters.
