Lexi Brainer Sets School Record In Weight Throw

Lexi competed at the Jack Johnson Classic hosted by the University of Minnesota last Friday (1/30). Lexi finished the weight throw competition with a 5th place mark and the only competitors that finished ahead of her were D1 Minnesota Gophers. Her throw of 17.71m set a new HU school record, leads the MIAC, and currently ranks her 4th in NCAA DIII. Her toss also surpassed April Felt (also of Hamline) as the best mark by a Women’s Weight Thrower in conference history.
