The Wichita State men's javelin throwers are ranked No. 1 in the country and qualified two to the NCAA Championships on June 6 in Eugene, Ore.

Aaron True (254 feet, 3 inches), Taran Taylor (243-8), John Hoplin (226-0), and Damien Odle (222-8) all ranked top-40 nationally with their season-best marks. True and Odle advanced to the NCAA Championships from this past weekend's qualifying meet in Sacramento, Calif.

Not only does WSU have a title contender in True, who ranks No. 3 and holds the school record, but it also has the most depth of any team in the country.
