Behrend Magazine: Summer 2022

On the Cover:

Brady Smith, at right, a high jumper on Behrend’s track-and-field team, was always a standout jumper for the Behrend Lions, but he reached new heights this year, thanks to another high-flying teammate, Sam Hetrick, at left. The teammates’ friendly rivalry generated some impressive results. The two finished the indoor track season ranked third (Smith) and fifth (Hetrick) overall in the NCAA Indoor Track Championship, earning All- American honors. They each had a final mark of 2.03 meters. Read more about Behrend’s top leaping Lions.
