Delsea senior Hannah Nuhfer opened her 2026 outdoor season with the No. 3 discus throw in the country this year.
Nuhfer threw 170-8 at the Deptford Spartan Relays. No series information because “Pioneer Timing” is clueless and doesn’t realize this is 2026 and field event series are mandatory in live results. But that’s her 2nd-best throw ever behind her South Jersey-record 178-9 when she won the discus national title at West Philly Nationals in June. That was actually her last meet throwing the discus, so she’s thrown 170-plus in two consecutive meets.
Nuhfer is No. 3 nationally according to MileSplit’s U.S. database behind Jaslene Massey of Aliso Niguel of Aliso Viejo, Calif., who threw 188-7 last month in a meet at Irvine, Calif., and Jenna Tunks of Oakridge Secondary School in London, Ontario, who threw 176-6 ¾ last month in a meet at Ramona, Okla. So I guess that makes her No. 2 among U.S. high school throwers.
Nuhfer also opened in the shot put Saturday with a state-leading 44-1 ½. She threw 48-0 indoors and placed 2nd at Boston Nationals with a 46-3.
