BOULDER – University of Colorado sophomore Delaney Hall took home her third straight javelin event title here Friday at the first day of the CU Invite.

WHAT HAPPENED
Hall, who took the event title at both the Fum McGraw and Tom Benich added yet another Friday tossing a 141-5.5/43.11 mark. Hall's PR came at the Tom Benich Invite last weekend where she threw a 145-6/44.36 mark. That PR mark of 14-6/44.36 is currently the No. 35 throw in the NCAA West Region and if it stands Hall will advance to the West Regionals in Austin, Texas.
