Joe's throw is also a new Alumni Record, which I'm sure has been one of his goals for awhile now (he also has the indoor shot put record). The previous best was held by C.J. Hunter with a 21.87m (71' 9") throw in 2000.

He had this to say on his victory.

“Things might not have looked as pretty as last season but it’s starting to come together. Just taking a while to line everything up. But this season, I’ve PR’d a lot and things are really starting to line up but at the same time, you want to do it big. Especially at this venue. I’m glad to have come away with a win.”

Tonight is Cas Loxsom's turn to represent Penn State Track and Field Alumni with the 1st round of the 800 scheduled for 7:40 PM EST. Once again the meet will be broadcast live on USATF.tv.
