Fort Hays State men’s track and field athletes Brady Tien and Cory Keehn earned All-Central Region honors from the United States Track and Field/Cross Country Coaches Association for the 2014 outdoor season. To earn all-region honors, the individual must be among the top five performers in their respective events within the region.

Tien earned the distinction in the pole vault. He also earned All-MIAA honors earlier this month with a third-place finish at the MIAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships. He is currently tied for the seventh-best vault in the nation at 16′ 8.75″, which he reached this past week at the KSU Wildcat Open and set a new personal best in the process. He has been creeping closer to the school record, which is 16′ 10″.

Keehn earned his honor in the 10,000 meters. He currently ranks 30th on the national performance list in the event with a time of 30:22.94 that he ran at the San Francisco State Distance Carnival.
