Delsea senior Hannah Nuhfer won her 2nd straight Meet of Champions discus title Wednesday at Pennsauken and surpassed the meet record four times.
Nuhfer, the U.S. champion and state record holder at 184-5, threw 180-3 on her 2nd attempt and also had a 180-0 on her 5th throw, a 177-0 on her 3rd, and a 172-6 on her final throw. Those are the four-best throws in Meet of Champions history.
The previous meet record was 171-7 by Layla Giordano of Old Tappan in 2024.
Nuhfer is the first South Jersey girl to repeat a M-of-C discus title since Cherokee’s Jessica Woodard, a 2022 World Championship finalist, won three in a row from 2011 through 2013.
Nuhfer, who also recorded a 166-4 on her 4th throw , had the five-best throws of the competition.
Glassboro’s record-setting tandem of senior Sunsarai Moore and junior Virginia Tarasevich placed 3rd and 4th, Moore with a 152-2 on her final throw and Tarsevich with a PR 147-0 – No. 10 in South Jersey history. They are the only teammates in New Jersey history to both throw at least 145 feet in the same meet, and they’ve now done it twice in a row.
