Akron, Ohio – Senior Aulton Kohn won his third BIG EAST Championship, emerging victorious in the 200m dash. Kohn was also one of four SU student-athletes to earn all-conference accolades, earning the honor in the 60m dash.
Kohn’s championship in the 200m dash was the first of his career. He won the 60m dash titles the past two seasons. Kohn posted a time of 21.34, 15 hundredths ahead of the runner up. He is the first Syracuse champion in the event since Cory Ward won the title in 1996.
Kohn also finished second in the 60m dash finals, recording a time of 6.85. He finished just four hundredths shy of winning his third consecutive title. Teammate Michael LeBlanc placed fifth in the 60m dash with a mark of 6.90. LeBlanc set the BIG EAST Championship record in the event during the prelims, posting a time of 6.71.
Senior Dan Pribula earned his first All-BIG EAST honors at the indoor championship, placing third in the shot put. He posted a career-best mark of 17.20m en route to the third place finish. Pribula also earned all-conference honors in the shot put at the 2006 BIG EAST Outdoor Championship.
