The University of Delaware will be represented at the 2022 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in Eugene, Oregon, by junior student-athlete Megan Albamonti.

Albamonti will compete at Hayward Field in the javelin competition, which starts at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 25. She has the eighth-best mark in the field, as she enters the weekend with a throw of 55.78 meters (about 183 feet).

Albamonti, a native of Westerly, Rhode Island, became the eighth Blue Hen in program history to reach the NCAA preliminary round in back-to-back seasons, after winning the Colonial Athletics Association javelin crown for the second straight season.

Albamonti is majoring in human physiology and hopes to attend medical school.
