COLLEGE STATION, Texas—The CSUN Women’s Track & Field team were represented at the NCAA West First Round for the first time since 2022 on Thursday at E.B. Cushing Stadium. CSUN’s Summer Mosley and Jasmine Haskell competed in the hammer throw and in the 400m, respectively, but each fell just short in advancing to the next round. 

Senior Summer Mosley began the day by competing in the women’s hammer throw. After fouling on her first attempt, Mosley deposited a throw of 57.92m (190-0). That toss would place her 25th overall in the 48-athlete field, but short of advancing to the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Despite falling short of nationals, Mosley’s 25th-place finish is her best of her collegiate career at an NCAA regional. Earlier this month, Mosley won the hammer throw title at the Big West Championships, becoming the first Matador to win the title since 2017. 

Mosley will have one more chance to advance to the NCAA Outdoor Championships as she is scheduled to participate in the discus on Saturday.

Haskell made her NCAA West First Round debut on Thursday by competing in the 400m. The sophomore entered the event as the 47th seed in the 48-athlete field but improved upon that seeding to finish 38th overall with a time of 54.05. However, Haskell finished outside the top 24 to advance to the 400m quarterfinal round. Haskell’s west region appearance caps a career year on the track in 2025. She would reach the podium for a first career time when she took third place at the 2025 Big West Championships in the 400m with a personal-best time of 53.71. 

UP NEXT

The CSUN men’s track & field team will have one representative on Friday at the NCAA West First Round. Jay Louison-Roe will take flight in the men’s triple jump beginning at 12:30 p.m. PT. 

On the final day of the NCAA West First Round, the Matadors’ Summer Mosley will cap her stay at the regional by competing in the discus starting at 11:00 a.m. PT.

EASTON, Mass. (May 29, 2025) – Stonehill College track and field head coach Michael Delgado and his staff were named the Northeast Conference Outdoor Track & Field men’s coaching staff of the year, the conference announced on Thursday.
 

Delgado (Throws/Hurdles/Horizontal Jumps), in his sixth season at the helm of the Skyhawks Track & Field program, led a staff of head cross country coach Karen Boen and assistant cross country coach Carl Boen (Distance/Mid-Distance), along with assistant track & field coach Dan Schwartz (Vertical Jumps/Sprints), to the staff’s first postseason honor at the Division I level, as voted on by the other NEC head coaches.
 
This is Delgado’s second Coaching Staff of the Year award in total, having earned the honor in the Northeast-10 at the Division II level in 2019. He joins Boen, who was given the honor of NEC Cross Country Coach of the Year in both 2022 and 2023, leading the women’s squad to the NEC title in 2023.
 
At outdoor championships at W.B. Mason Stadium this past May, the men’s team propelled itself from sixth place after the first day of competition, up to second place in the final standings with a team score of 105.50 points, trailing only Central Connecticut, which won the title with 235 points.
 
This was the highest placement for the men’s team at NEC Outdoor Championships, placing fourth last year and ninth the year before. Their second-place finish included seven top-three finishes and four silver medals. The women’s team placed third with 124 points, their best finish at the DI level after coming in sixth in 2024 and fourth in 2023.
 
Along with the Skyhawks coaching staff receiving postseason recognition, graduate students Jacob Pacheco (Merrimack, N.H.) and Cody DeAngelo (Old Saybrook, Conn.), and senior Parker Hagen (Newport, R.I.) were named to the NEC All-Conference Second Team for their silver medals in the javelin throw, pole vault, and the triple jump. The Skyhawks’ 4×100-meter relay team also earned Second Team honors.
 
The men’s NEC All-Rookie Team included freshmen Kyle Kwiatek (Lynn, Mass.) and Jacob Tobin (Natick, Mass.), who were the top first-year finishers in the 5,000-meter and 10,000-meter races.
 
On the women’s side, graduate student Abigail Larsson (Bayport, N.Y.) won the pole vault to be the lone Skyhawk to earn All-Conference First Team honors. Classmate Kaytlin Encarnacao (Reading, Mass.) was named to the All-Conference Second Team after earning a silver medal in the 400-meter race. Joining her with second team honors was senior Madison Rousseau (Canton, Mass.) for her performance in the 100-meter hurdles and sophomore Kayla Oakes (Kingston, N.Y.), who placed second in the long jump.
 
Stonehill’s 4×400-meter relay and 4×800-meter relay teams were also additions to the NEC All-Conference Second Team. The Skyhawk women led the conference with four student-athletes on the NEC All-Rookie Team, as freshmen Hannah Santos (Swansea, Mass.), Rachael Korowski (Hudson, Mass.), Emmy Belvin (Chepachet, R.I.), and Makenna Dube (North Andover, Mass.) were all recognized by the conference. Santos was the top freshman finisher in the high jump, Korowski in the 1500-meter race, Belvin in the 800-meter race, and Dube in the shot put.

Airi Cowie of Maple Ridge has won a silver medal with the women’s national U17 water polo team at the PanAm Aquatics Championships, held from May 13 to 25 in Medellin, Colombia.

Cowie said the win was a highlight of her career, on par with last year’s appearance with the U16 national team that competed at the World Championships in Turkey. She won player of the match in one of those games, with a four-goal performance.

At the PanAms, Cowie played more of a defence and assisting role she said, but scored seven goals during the tournament – including a four-goal performance in one game.

The Canadian women started the tournament with three wins: 28-24 against Mexico, 25-9 over Brazil and 21-9 over Argentina.

They then lost 16-10 to Team USA, but bounced back and beat Colombia 28-13, and Peru 24-1. That put them in the championship game, and the U.S. won the battle again, by a score of 18-7. 

“The U.S. is obviously very strong,” said Cowie. “I definitely think our team under-performed against them.”

However, she noted Team Canada still won a big prize – a qualifying spot in the 2026 U18 World Championships. The host venue has yet to be decided, but Cowie is hoping it’s someplace exotic and interesting.

“I love that I get to travel a lot with my sport,” she said.

Cowie is a Grade 11 student at Maple Ridge Secondary, and plays for the Surrey Water Polo club. She said her place on next year’s team is not guaranteed, but she is confident she will have a good chance of again wearing the Maple Leaf at the worlds.

Her coach was happy with the team’s overall improvement at the PanAms.

“These two weeks, our team had an amazing progression,” said Water Polo Canada’s women’s U17 national team head coach David Paradelo. “Starting from one week training in California where we were able to come together for the first time, the athletes were hungry for more every day and the staff was easily able to get the girls in a professional behaviour that lead to a quick evolution of the team chemistry.

“We were able to start the tournament in Colombia setting the tone in the first few games. We were able to maintain this through the tournament, yet lacked some composure in the games versus the USA,” Paradelo added. “The girls learned a lot within adversity from in and out of the water in an experience that will teach them for their future in water polo and in life.”

The Canadian men’s U17 team won gold, making it the best-ever finish for the Canadian delegation at the event.

Cowie has a big summer ahead of her.

Her club team will compete at the U18 national championships in Calgary from June 5 to 7. After that, she is going to be on the roster of a U.S. club team, competing in high-level water polo events in California this summer.

Long-term, Cowie is hoping to follow in the footsteps of her older siblings Yuri and Andy, who both played water polo on scholarships for U.S. universities in the NCAA.
