Hunter has won eight events this season, including: IC4A Championship (18.00m), New England Championship (18.38m), Battle of Beantown (17.88m), Boston Indoor Games (19.49m – school record and second longest toss in the country up to date), Harvard Invitational (19.37m), Dartmouth Relays (18.98m), Harvard Open (17.97m) and the Jay Carisella Track & Field Invitational (18.19m).
The four-year hurler will take part in his second NCAA Indoor Championship this weekend in Fayetteville, Ark. starting on March 12.
