MARION, Ind. - David Friedberg defends his NAIA Men's Javelin National Championship Title at the 71st NAIA Men's Outdoor Track & Field National Championships! Friedberg threw 65.93 meters which was one meter better than the second-place finisher from Southern Oregon.
Friedberg had strong competition and battled conditions that were not great for throwing, but he pushed through and came from behind to take the title.
His best throw of the year was 72.98 meters, which was the best throw in the NAIA. His championship throw in 2022 was 69.90 meters.
Friedberg will have one more year to make it three in a row, which is unheard of in NAIA Track & Field. Last year was the first Track & Field National Champion in Reinhardt Track & Field history and this makes number two!
Congratulations David Friedberg, Coach Brennan, Coach White, Coach Hitzeman, and Reinhardt Track & Field for representing Reinhardt University on the national stage!
