April 18, 2017 | Men's Track and Field
WEST POINT, N.Y. – Army West Point men's track and field sophomore, Jeff Giannettino, was named the Army Athletic Association Athlete of the Week after his strong performance at the Gamecock Invitational over the weekend.
Giannettino finished third in the high jump among some of the best athletes in the nation. His height of 2.11 meters tied him for fifth all-time in the Army records book and was only .04 meters away from his record setting jump at the IC4A's last year. This height was also the top mark in the Patriot League so far this season.
This coming weekend, he and the rest of the Black Knights will participate in the Larry Ellis Invitational hosted by Princeton. Competition kicks off Friday at 2 p.m. with the hammer throw.
