KUTZTOWN, PA. – Senior Jack Flood (Blue Point/Bayport-Blue Point) smashed his own school record in the decathlon and combined with senior Connor Christopherson (Morrisonville/Saranac) to earn the top two spots in a field of 23 competitors at the Kutztown University Mondschein Multi.

Sophomore Brent DiVittorio (Brewster) also represented the Red Dragons and finished in eighth place. The two-day event was held at Kutztown's Andre Reed Stadium. The women's heptathlon was also conducted at the meet, but Cortland did not have anyone entered.

Flood won with a score of 7,021 points, eclipsing his own school mark of 6,686 points set last season. Christopherson also broke the previous school mark with his second-place score of 6,831 points. Flood and Christopherson currently rank first and second nationally in Division III. DiVittorio posted a score of 6,055 points.

(UPDATE: Flood's score was also both a Mondschein Multi meet record and a Kutztown facility record, and his high jump broke his own meet record of 2.04 meters from last year.)

Flood, the NCAA Division III indoor heptathlon champion last month, recorded three ECAC-qualifying performances during the meet. He cleared 2.06 meters (6' 9") in the high jump, ran the 110-meter hurdles in 14.96 seconds, and registered a distance of 6.70 meters (21' 11.75") in the long jump. His top point totals came in those events with 859 points in the high jump, 854 points in the hurdles, and 743 points in the long jump.

Christopherson, who finished third nationally in the heptathlon last month, posted ECAC marks of 1.91 meters (6' 3.25") in the high jump and 15.12 seconds in the hurdles. He tallied 835 points in the hurdles, 773 points in the 400-meter dash (50.92), and 755 points in the 100-meter dash (11.49).

DiVittorio also notched a pair of ECAC-qualifying efforts with his high jump of 1.97 meters (6' 5.5") and his 110-meter hurdles time of 15.54 seconds. His top three point totals came in the hurdles (785 points), the high jump (776 points), and the long jump (718 points; 6.59 meters/21' 7.5").

Cortland is competing at the Bucknell University Bison Outdoor Classic Friday and Saturday in Lewisburg, Pa.
