Taylor’s talent was on display at the Walsh University Invitational, an institution scheduled to join the league for the 2017-18 academic year.
Taylor improved his stock even more in the discus throw, setting a new conference record and breaking his own G-MAC-best throw of 55.47m (182 feet).
Taylor’s effort in the hammer throw was second to only his own at 56.91 meters and he also competed in shot put. The senior from East Canton, Ohio, helped the Pioneers finish fourth out of 16 teams in attendance.
Taylor now ranks fifth across DII in the discus throw, inching that much more close to the auto-qualifying standard.
