NEW ORLEANS, La. – Just ahead of the 2019 installment of the NCAA DII Outdoor Championships, five Fort Hays State track and field athletes were named to the USTFCCCA All-Central Region Team. Four male athletes and one female from the Tigers landed on the list released Tuesday (May 14) from the USTFCCCA headquarters.

The top-five individuals in each event from each region earned All-Region distinction, in addition to the top-three relay teams in each event. The regions include the Atlantic, Central, East, Midwest, South, South Central, Southeast and West. A total of 1,831 member institutions with 926 men’s programs and 905 women’s programs made the mention.

Philip Landrum<\/a> and Brett Meyer<\/a> led the way for FHSU with both gathering two spots on the list. Landrum earned his honor in the 200-meters where he ranks No. 24 on the national performance list with a time of 21.07, and in the 100-meters where he sits at No. 32 with a time of 10.52.

Meyer earns his two mentions in both the 800-meters (1:51.45) and the 1,500-meters (3:44.18). Meyer ranks No. 4 in the 1,500-meters where he has earned an automatic qualification, as well as sits at No. 30 in the 800-meters.

Freshman shot-putter Gilbert Peters<\/a> was named All-Central Region with his best throw of 53 feet, 8 inches – good enough to place him at No. 60 on the national performance list. Rounding out the mentions for the men is Ryan Stanley<\/a> who is recognized for his pole vault of 16 feet, 9 inches, a mark that places his at No. 10 in NCAA DII.

Alexcia Deutscher<\/a> is the lone Tiger female to earn a spot on the All-Central Region team. Deutscher ranks No. 7 on the performance list as she threw for 160 feet, 2 inches.

The 2019 NCAA DII national qualifiers will be announced Tuesday (May 14) in the afternoon. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
