Monmouth College dominated this week’s Midwest Conference Track Performers of the Week honors.

C.J. Hollingsworth.Senior jumper C.J. Hollingsworth (Moreno Valley, Calif./Notre Dame) and sophomore sprinter Ryan Moll (Farmington, Ill./HS) from the men’s team, were joined by senior sprint specialist Constance Jackson (Peoria, Ill./Woodruff) and sophomore Katy Healy (Hinsdale, Ill./Central) off the women’s squad.

Hollingsworth continued his fine spring, turning in a season-best long jump of 21'11-1/4 at Coe Saturday to go with his best Ryan Moll.triple jump of the spring (44'4). He's ranked first in the conference in the triple jump, and his efforts earned him a second and a third at the Coe meet.

Moll is recovering from an early-season injury in fine fashion, and he hit his stride at Coe College over the weekend, placing second in the 200- and 400-meter dashes (22.36) and 49.39) and the 4x100 relay (42.53) and helping the Scots win the 4x400 relay in 3:18.52. Moll's individual times moved him up to fifth in the 200 and fourth in the 400 in the MWC rankings.

Constance Jackson.Jackson is making a run to make her final month of collegiate track one to remember. The All-American won the 100- and 200-meter dashes at Coe's Forest Rittgers Invitational in season-best, near-automatic qualifying times of 12.24 and 24.84. In the 4x400, Jackson ran the first leg so fast (55.6) that Monmouth was able to win the race by approximately 80 meters in 3:52.88, one of the best times in the nation this year.She also led off the 4x100 Katy Healy.relay, which posted a provisional time of 48.49.

Healy posted solid marks in three throwing events at Coe College Saturday, including a third-place mark of 39'7-1/2 in the shot put which is second-best in the MWC this season. She added a personal-best heave of 99'8-3/4 in the javelin and 112'7 in the discus.
