DePauw junior Tessa Kochert broke the program record in the triple jump at the Illinois Wesleyan Keck Select, finishing second with a leap of 11.18 meters. The junior had tied the previous record, set by Shaneka Terrell in 2003, at the Rose-Hulman Friday Night Spikes #3 meet last week. The Glen Ellyn, Illinois native also set a career best in the long jump, earning third place with a mark of 5.33 meters. Those performances currently rank Kochert second in the NCAC in both events.
