It was a monster weekend for Mungro at the Oiler Invite as he set a new PR and auto qualified for nationals in the weight throw.
The junior tossed 21.24m (69’ 8.25”) to win the event. It is the top distance in the conference this season (league has five total provisional qualifiers) and it ranks No. 5 in the Great Midwest records.
For additional context, Mungro’s effort would have been good enough to win the 2019 NCAA Championship that was captured by former UF standout Austin Combs (21.22m).
Mungro is currently one of just three auto qualifiers in Division II, ranking second in the country.
Mungro also is a provisional qualifier in shot put and is currently No. 22 in Division II. This is his second conference field athlete of the week award for the current season.
