Senior Erik Escobedo helped the Pilots win the NCCAA Men’s Track & Field National Championship as he earned All-American status in the discus (47.02m), hammer (69.05m), and shot put (15.22m). The Mishawaka, Indiana native was the individual nation champion in the hammer and named Male Athlete of the Meet. Escobedo’s toss in the hammer met the USATF Outdoor Championship B standard and broke both the NCCAA Outdoor Championship and Bethel program records.
