Rolonda Taylor, Virginia Wesleyan, Sr.

Taylor, a senior from Norfolk, Va., was busy and successful at the Captains Invitational and Combined Events hosted by Christopher Newport University. Taylor competed in four events including three jumps and a sprint with three top-five finishers. She won the triple jump at 10.56 meters (34-7.75), which would be second in the ODAC if not for her previous mark of 10.59 earlier this season. Taylor added a third place finish in the long jump at 5.14 meters (16-10.50), which ties for second in the ODAC. She also placed fifth in the high jump at 1.51 meters (4-11.50), which slots third in the league. On the track, Taylor competed in the 60-meter dash and finished sixth with a time of 8.26 seconds, which is tied for fourth-fastest in the ODAC.
