LONG JUMP RESULTS | MEN’S 100 METER RESULTS

NEW ORLEANS – A pair of Privateers had to wait a big longer than anticipated as rain and lightning delayed procedures at the 2025 NCAA East Regional at Hodges Stadium on Wednesday evening.

Christopher Murphy got things started for the Privateers with jumps of 6.66 meters, 6.58 meters and 7.20 meters in the long jump. After two flights Murphy sat in 12^th place for almost three and a half hours as the inclement weather delayed the starts for flights three and four. When the dust settled however, the Port Allen native’s best mark placed him 30th.

After an almost four hour wait Madonna Favour ruled to have reacted too quickly when the 100M dash began at almost 10 p.m. CST.

Murphy and Favour return to action Friday afternoon at 4:00 p.m. CST when they are joined by Daryl Bachmann, and Darryl George Jr. in the men’s 4×100 relay. Fans can watch the 4×100, as well as all of Friday’s races on ESPN+. Updates will also be made available @privateersTFXC on X and Instagram.

LOUISVILLE, CO (May 28, 2025) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ — Fjällräven is honored to share that The Guide to Outside, a collaborative content program with AllGear Digital and its flagship publication GearJunkie, has been awarded Best Branded Content Site, B2C in the 2025 Digiday Content Marketing Awards.

Created for Fjällräven’s Fall/Winter 2024 campaign, the Guide to Outside was designed to inspire a deeper connection to nature through thoughtful storytelling and practical guidance. Rooted in Fjällräven’s ethos of“ walking with nature,”the multi-part digital experience offered readers an entry into seasonal outdoor activities—from cold-weather trekking tips and gear repair tutorials to educational pieces on layering systems and sustainable materials.

“The Guide to Outside was a way for us to invite people into the outdoors with a sense of ease and purpose,” says Nathan Dopp, President of the Americas for Fjällräven. “Partnering with GearJunkie allowed us to extend that invitation through high-integrity journalism and trusted voices in the outdoor community. We’re proud to see that recognized by Digiday.”

Produced by AllGear Digital’s in-house content studio and editorial team, the guide prioritized immersive storytelling with interactive trail maps, social content, a video series, and a custom microsite with gear recommendations. The result was a blend of editorial insight and brand purpose.

“From the start, we set out to create something that felt both engaging and useful with content that inspired people to get into nature,” said MJ Smoot, Senior Integrated Marketing Manager for Fjällräven. “We wanted the content to resonate with everyone, f rom the new hiker to the thru-hiker. This recognition from Digiday reflects the care and collaboration that went into every piece of the project and I’m incredibly proud of what we built together with AllGear Digital.”

This award marks a meaningful milestone in Fjällräven’s ongoing mission to support more people in getting outside. As with all Fjällräven initiatives, The Guide to Outside reflects our belief in fostering a meaningful and sustainable connection with nature, encouraging people to spend time outdoors with intention and care.
