Four-time NJCAA champion College of DuPage continues to build its case for a fifth straight team title after another successful meet, this time at Wheaton on Saturday.
 
Sophomore All-American sprinter Weston White finished second in the 200 (21.64 seconds) and third in the 100 (10.91 seconds). Nationally, White ranks first in D3 in both events and his 4 x 100 relay team ranks first at 41.60 seconds.
 
Freshman All-American pole vaulter William Kallas was the only Chap to bring home an individual title, clearing 4.55 m (14 feet, 11 inches). He also ran an outstanding time of 50.71 seconds in the 400.

Fellow Chap Owen Fitzgerald owned the top 400-meter Chap time, narrowly missing the 50-second barrier at 50.18 seconds.
 
Kallas ranks first in his event with his personal best 4.85 m set at the national indoor meet last month where he finished seventh.
 
Reigning NJCAA champion high jumper Ronan Cornelius placed fourth in his event (1.89 m | 6-2 ¼) and ranks first in D3 at 2.03 m (6-7 ¾).
 
Hammer thrower Sterling Sawicki is the other Chap who leads in specialty, throwing 47.53 m (155-11) earlier this spring in St. Louis.
 
The Chaps return to Wheaton College on Thursday night for the annual Don Church Twilight. Weight events begin at 11:30 and the first running event is at 3:30 p.m.
