ROCHESTER, N.Y. - Haverford senior Kayla Robinson wrapped up a stellar track & field career on the final day of the NCAA Division III Championships at St. John Fisher University on Saturday, as she completed a two-event stint with action in the triple jump bright and early this morning at the Polisseni Track and Field Complex. 

Robinson, the Haverford College program record holder in the event, finished 17th overall with a mark of 11.70 meters (38 feet, 4.75 meters). Victoria Kadiri of Johns Hopkins was crowned the national champion with a Division III Record 13.21-meter leap. 

 Robinson became the first Haverford women's track & field athlete to qualify for nationals in the triple jump, as she cleared 11.7 on her second attempt, but fouled on the first and third attempts.

The Bristol, Conn. product holds the top long jump mark (5.77 meters) in the NCAA Metro Region, as well as the top triple jump (11.93 meters), both leaps that are Haverford program records.
