Clarke Breaks Own Program Record in Eagles' Trip to Kent State

KENT, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women's track and field team made its first trip to Kent State University since 2013-14, participating in the Kent State Doug Raymond National Qualifier on Saturday, Feb. 9. The Eagles' trip to the home of the Golden Flashes saw sophomore Kadian Clarke (Kingston, Jamaica- Immaculate Conception) break her own school record for the third time this season, clearing 18.69m in the weight throw, good for fourth place.

Clarke's throw not only earned her a top-5 finish at the national qualifier, but also tied the fifth-best effort by a Mid-American Conference Athlete this season.
