KENT, Ohio- Just one week after setting the Kent State men's triple jump record, senior Donovan Tolbert set a new record after with a 16.18m (53' 1"). His impressive score also ties South Florida's Matthew O'Neal for the second-best triple jump in the nation.

However, the men's and women's track & field teams both came up short against the visiting Akron Zips on Friday, as the men fell 82-68 and the women lost 80-71.
In a competitive men's 60m dash, sophomore Jonathan Grant came out on top with a personal best time of 6.
