Michael Bryan wraps up historic season with 16th place finish at Olympic Trials

Wichita State junior Michael Bryan racked up a 16th place finish in the hammer throw at the U.S. Olympic Trials on Saturday in Eugene, Oregon.

Bryan’s longest mark came in his first attempt which went for a distance of 67.98m/223-0. That mark was 16th best overall but ultimately Bryan fell four spots away from advancing to the finals of the event.

Prior to the event, Bryan said that the biggest key for this weekend would be finding consistency with his form.

“I’m really just trying to find a connection with my form and just hold it as long as I possibly can,” Bryan said.
