BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Senior Shane McKeon (Royersford, Pa./Pope John Paul II) and sophomore Timothy Lanahan (Mendham, N.J./Mendham) both registered second place finishes to lead the way for The University of Scranton men's track and field team at the Moravian University Indoor Meet that was held on Lehigh's campus on Saturday.

  • In the field events, sophomore Kyle Muirhead (Massapequa, N.Y./St. Anthony's) finished fourth in the long jump with a personal-best mark of 6.24m.
