Viitala and Nelson Qualify for Nationals

Two Broncos are headed to the NCAA National Track & Field Championships.


Long jumper Eetu Viitala and hammer thrower Alex Nelson both finished in the top 12 at the Western Regionals over the weekend in Eugene, Oregon to earn a ticket to the national meet in Des Moines June 8-11.  Viitala finished 11th with a jump of 24-5.75 while Nelson tossed the hammer 209-feet, 3-inches to finish eighth. 


Congratulations to these great student-athletes and best of luck in Des Moines!
