DES MOINES, Iowa - Senior Ben Woodruff concluded his two-year career at Long Beach State with a 19th-place showing in the men's javelin at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships on Thursday at Drake Stadium.
Woodruff's best throw of the day was on his first attempt - 221 feet, 10 inches. His placing at the NCAA Championships earned him honorable mention All-America recognition.
Woodruff was unable to advance out of his flight as only the top nine performers moved on to the finals.
Woodruff, who started competing in the javelin in 2010, had a remarkable senior season. The Redondo Beach native claimed his second consecutive Big West title in the javelin and was named the 2012 Big West Men's Field Athlete of the Year.
Woodruff's best performance of the season came at the Big West Challenge where he established a school and conference record of 243-2. His top mark also meets the Olympic Trials "B" standard.
