Senior Sean Washington (Dale City, VA) is expected to be one of the top performers for Union in this weekend's Upstate Collegiate Athletic Association Track & Field Championships, which will be held at St. Lawrence.
Washington, who last year earned All-American honors by finishing fifth in the 55 meter championships with a time of 6.47 at the NCAA Indoor Meet, ran a 6.46 in last week's Colgate Invitational to qualify him for this year's national championship meet. Washington is currently ranked third in the country behind Matt Pagel, a sophomore from Wisconsin Lacrosse (6.37) and Nebraska Wesleyan junior Brett Blake (6.43).
Washington is the defending UCAA champion in the 55 meter and finished fourth in last year's 200-meter event.
Union's men finished third of five team last year with 52 points while the women finished third of four with 34 points.
