The High Point University men's track & field team has added seven student-athletes for the 2010-11 campaign, announced head coach Mike Esposito. Distance runners Patrick Crawford, Jacob Roach and John Yankello, field athletes Max Coleman, Tristan Faure and Steven Scally as well as hurdler Ryan Venable will join the Panthers this fall.

Now, field events may not always play a big role in some elite meets, but this is an invite that has continually brought in great talent in the field. Pole vault looks to be an area of strength this time around with a couple of 16-footers on the boys’ side and a 12-footer leading the girls. Look for some strong performances in the girls’ long jump and high jump as well.
