Full All-Region Teams
NEW ORLEANS – The Ursinus College men's track and field team saw 10 student-athletes garner All-Metro Region selections for the 2025-26 indoor season, announced by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) on Wednesday.
Among the 10 selections for the Bears were: the Distance Medley Relay team of: junior
Troy Hedrick, first-year
Ramon Martinez, junior
Dylan Baer, and senior
Liam Johnston; sophomore
Mitchell Davis and plus
Sean Bowers in the pole vault, junior
Carter Kensil in the shot put, sophomore
Noah Sanders in the weight throw, first-year
Noah Tapler in the 60 meters, and senior
Aiden Tobin in the 200 meters. The 10 different selections were just one shy of the school record of 11 set back in 2022.
The top-8 individuals in each event from each region on the year-end Descending Order Lists earned All-Region distinction, in addition to each member of the region's top-8 relay teams.
The distance medley group put on a school record performance at the AARTFC Championships last Friday as they won the race behind a school record time of 10:15.57 to shatter a 39-year old mark. It was the fifth fastest time in the Metro Region and the first All-Region selections for Hedrick, Baer, and Martinez while Johnston added his second Indoor All-Region nod.
Davis cruised to the top mark in the Metro Region with his career best mark of 5.05 meters set back at the Widener Indoor Classic in February. He defended his Centennial Conference Indoor Pole Vault title and qualified for the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships this weekend in Birmingham, Alabama. Davis is 3-for-3 in All-Region selections for his career which included the outdoor season in 2025.
Bowers garnered his first career All-Region selection with his best indoor season to date on the pole vault. He set a new career best mark of 4.30 meters twice this season at both the Widener Indoor Classic and Centennial Indoor Championships. Bowers finished fifth overall at the Centennial Championship meet.
Kensil also took home his first career All-Region nod after ranking seventh in the Metro Region in the shot put. He recorded his career best mark of 14.95 meters at the Centennial Indoor Championships and finished third for the bronze medal.
Sanders had a breakout indoor campaign in the weight throw by blitzing both the school and Centennial Conference Weight Throw record on his mark of 18.65 meters at the Centennial Indoor Championship meet. He topped his own record in four straight meets and claimed the Centennial Weight Throw title two weeks ago. Sanders easily had the top Metro Region mark for the event by over a full meter and narrowly missed a bid to the NCAA Indoor Championship meet.
Tapler gave Bears fans a glimpse into the future after joining the team during the indoor season with a dynamic showing in the 60 meters. He earned his All-Region nod in his first season at the AARTFC Championships last Friday by just topping the Ursinus school record in the event at 6.91. Tapler tied for fifth overall in the region and claimed the bronze medal at the Centennial Indoor Championships.
Tobin claimed his third straight All-Region Indoor nod in the 200 meters by ranking seventh in the Metro Region on his season best time of 21.59 at the Centennial Indoor Championships. It was his fourth overall Indoor selection after being a member of the 4x400 relay team that earned a spot in 2024.
