WINONA LAKE – Grace’s track and field team wrapped up the NCCAA National Championships with a number of memorable performances.

The throwers powered the day for the Lancers, placing well in nearly every event in which they competed.

The championships were held at Grace’s Bernard and Linnie Key Track and Field Complex for the first time in school history, welcoming over 450 student-athletes to Kosciusko County.

Grace had three throwers place in the men’s hammer on the final day of the championships. Isaac Stuckey and Jacob Brown placed second and third respectively to earn All-American recognition. Stuckey threw 188-feet-10.5, and Brown hit 187-8.75.

Additionally, Walker Hobbs was seventh in the event for the Lancers.
