7/5/2022 3:22:00 PM | Track & Field
DURHAM – Duke track and field announced the addition of five more individuals – three transfers and two freshman – to the roster ahead of the 2022-23 season. Maddie Davies, Jonathan Horn, Anoush Krafian, Zach McWhorter and Addie Renner join the Blue Devils across the jumps, multis and pole vault event groups.
"The vault squad is getting a tremendous boost with Zach and Tyler Hrbek transferring in, but the incoming freshmen are a talented bunch that will give both our men and women the depth we need," said Director of Track & Field and Cross Country Shawn Wilbourn. "The pole vault will continue to be an event that we excel in."
"I'm really stoked to have Addie join the team," said assistant coach Tatijana Jacobson. "She was one of the best high jumpers in the state out of high school. Addie brings a lot to the team and to this event and we're excited to see her start her career as a Blue Devil."
The Blue Devils push their incoming class to 20 members, as Davies, Horn, Krafian, McWhorter and Renner join incoming freshmen Nick Falk, Dalia Frias, Julia Jackson, Jeremy Kain, Gianna Locci, Amina Maatoug, Allison Neiders, Falon Spearman and Lauren Tolbert, along with graduate transfers Sara Absten, Tyler Hrbek, Robbie Otal, Ashlyn Ramos, Emily Sloan and Ilhame Tamrouti.
