LEXINGTON, Ky. – The Troy track and field program wrapped up its 2023-24 season at the NCAA East First Round on Friday afternoon after Javon Osbourne competed in the men's discus event at the Kentucky Track and Field Complex.
Osbourne, who needed a top-12 placement to advance to the NCAA Championships, came up just short in the discus after recording a 22nd place finish with a throw of 54.17m. Osbourne had an impressive season with seven podium placements and two first-place finishes across the discus and shot put events.
"It's a bittersweet ending to the season," Director of Track and Field Marc David said. "The five that were here competed well. However, when you are with the best of the best anything can happen. It was a great season for all who competed."
Also competing alongside Osbourne this week was Cole Stewart (javelin), Altwayne Bedward (shot put), Biniosa Ezukuse (shot put) and Joy Edward (shot put).
