Mount Union junior Sean Donnelly (Willoughby/South) did double-duty this past weekend, competing Friday in the elite weight throw section at Findlay before returning to his full team and helping his No. 3 Mount Union men to the team title at the OAC North Split meet the following day.

As the only Division III competitor in the field at Findlay, he finished sixth with a throw of 66-2½ (20.18m) to join the all-time top-10 performers list for Division II at No. 5. He is just the fifth DIII man to surpass 66 feet.
 

He nearly did it again at Saturday’s OAC meet, winning the weight throw  with a mark of 65-1½ (19.84m) in addition to claiming the shot put title with a personal-best mark of 57-1½ (17.41m). He is currently No. 2 on the Division III shot put list in 2014.
