No stranger to the Higher Images RMU Male Student-Athlete of the Week honor, senior Chris Carper of the track & field team earns his second honor in the last three weeks and fourth of the 2014 spring season after a virtuoso performance in his signature event last week at the NCAA East Preliminary Round in Jacksonville, Fla., at Hodges Stadium. On his first throw of the event, Carper unleashed a distance of 73.09 meters (239’9”) to break his own school record. That mark stood throughout the rest of the event, allowing Carper to become the first Robert Morris student-athlete to be crowned a champion at the NCAA East Preliminary Round. Carper, who will enter the NCAA Championships, June 11-4, in Eugene, Oregon, as the No. 1 seed in the javelin, now owns each of the top 10 marks in school history in the javelin, the first student-athlete of either gender to possess each of the top 10 marks in program history in an event. A native of Altoona, Pa., Carper also has been honored with 12 Higher Images RMU Male Student-Athlete of the Week honors the last four years, the most in school history.
