Storrs, Conn.Senior Jumper Justin Miller (Collierville, Tenn.) He deserved his second Big East medal in a row in the long jump and Villanova had a few goal scorers in the men's shot for the fourth meeting in a row when the Big East Outdoor Balvary Championships of Jeep continued on Friday afternoon in George J. Sherman Family Sports Complex. Miller made the winner Podium with a bronze medal performance in the long jump, while the junior duo Liam Anderson (Lebanon, NJ) and newcomer Chris Coulter (Philadelphia, Pa.)

The performances in the field events on Friday and a quartet of goal scorers in the 5000 meters have the wildcats in second place in the team ranking on the last day of competition, which begins on Saturday morning. Villanova has 40 team points with 14 of the 22 events in the Meet program that are to be achieved. In preliminary heating that were controversial on Friday afternoon, the wildcats qualified for the final in their respective events.
Miller recorded a jump of 7.21 meters on his second attempt of the day to achieve third place, which corresponded to his result from the Indoor Conference Championships at the beginning of this year. It is the third All-Big East honor of Miller's career. Two of these podium appearances come in the long jump to anchor the 4×100 meter relay to a third place last year. Miller was a multi-event athlete who competed in Memphis at the beginning of his college career, and in his first year in Villanova in 2024 he took part outdoors in the long jump, spear and 4×100 relay.
He concentrated exclusively on the long jump in his final college campaign and has drawn his success to new heights. His work during the outdoor campaign comprises PRS of 7.37 meters at the Raleigh Relays in March and 7.57 meters last month at the Virginia Challenge. He will probably qualify for the NCAA EAST preliminary in Jacksonville, Florida, later this month.
