Cal Poly Pomona Athletics

Lance Walkington of the Cal Poly Pomona men's track and field team placed fourth in the javelin Saturday to earn All-American status, as he competed on the final day of the NCAA Division II National Championships. In his first three attempts, Walkington's top throw of 61.60 meters allowed him to advance into the final. There, his second attempt flew 63.26 meters, or 207 feet and six inches. That ended as the fourth-best mark nationally on the afternoon.
