Butch Patrick

BOSTON -- The University of Delaware men's indoor track and field team posted five top seven finishes at the Terrier Invitational Sunday at the Boston University Armory.

Leading the way for the Blue Hens was junior Butch Patrick (Newark/Newark, DE) who captured the long jump with a leap of 23-10 1/4 and placed fourth in the 55 meter dash with a school record time of 6.41 seconds. Patrick broke the UD record of 6.43 set by former Blue Hen football standout and former five-year National Football League cornerback Tim Jacobs in 1992. Patrick now holds UD records in the 55 meters, 60 meters (6.87), and long jump (24 1/4).

Also for the Blue Hens, Jon DiNozzi (Fox Lane/Bedford, NY) placed second in the pole vault with a leap of 15-5, Jamin Elliott (Churchland/Portsmouth, VA) was fifth in the triple jump with a distance of 46-9, and Michael Reh (Middletown, NY HS) placed seventh in the high jump, clearing 6-4.

The University of Delaware men's and women's indoor track and field teams will return to action this weekend, Feb. 3-4, when the Blue Hens host the annual Delaware Invitational at Delaware Field House. Over 30 men's and women's teams are expected to compete.
