BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The six Landmark outdoor track & field coaches made their major award selections immediately following the conclusion of this past weekend's championship meet.

Juniata's Andrew Paterno (Waynesboro, Pa./Waynesboro Area) and Evan Ulrich (Homer, NY/Homer) were named the Field Athlete of Rookie of the Year, respectively. The Eagles head coach Jon Cutright and his staff earned Coaching Staff of the Year.

Paterno had several top-five finishes in his final outdoor championships, including a first-place finish in the hammer throw with a mark of 47.02m. He placed fourth in the shot put (12.59m), fourth in the discus (39.61m) and fifth in the javelin with a mark of 43.73m.

Ulrich concluded his freshman campaign with a pair of top-five finishes. The rookie placed first in the 10,000m run with a time of 33:10.30, four seconds ahead of second place finishes and teammate Conor Dimond. Ulrich also placed third in the 5,000m race with a time of 15:34.40. Ulrich is the first Juniata Rookie of the Year in six years.
