Click here for 2008 NCAA East Regional Championship results

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Senior Jasmine Jennings shattered her school record in the hammer throw, en route to winning the 2008 NCAA East Regional Championship this afternoon at Florida State.

Jennings took the title with a throw of 205-06 (62.64m) - just under two feet farther than the second place finisher. By virtue of her victory, she earns a trip to the 2008 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championship - held from June 11-14 at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa. The preliminary rounds for the hammer will be contested on Wednesday, June 11.

She is the first URI student-athlete to win a regional championship title. Jennings is also the first Rhody student-athlete to earn a trip to the outdoor national championship meet in over a decade. Michelle Fournier qualified for the 1997 NCAA Championship in the hammer.

Teammate Sarah Thornton finished eighth overall in the standings, with a toss of 182-08 (55.69m). TyLynn Graham was eighth in the high jump, clearing a height of 5-7.25 (1.71m).

In the regional championship format, the top five finishers in each event earn an automatic qualifier to the NCAA Championship. Both student-athletes will find out if they earn a trip to nationals when the fields are announced on Monday.
