Aidan Maloney From St. Matthew Owns The High Jump Event

Sr. Krista von Borstel Leave a comment

You can watch Aidan Maloney grow up on the front of the CYO Meet of Champions book because he has won the boys high jump nearly every year of his participation in CYO Track and Field!  I would have liked to have seen Aidan take the CYO record with him as well when he moves on to High School.  With a best seed height of 5’9″ and a championship height of 5’5″ he was not far from the record of 5’11 set in 2009 by Marcus Yoo.

A great kid with a lot of courage and fortitude, Aidan will be fun to watch as he moves on the High School.  Thanks for some great races as well Aidan!
