Princeton, N.J. - Senior Mike Murawski's performance at Princeton's Weaver Track & Field Stadium on Sunday helped Duquesne finish in a tie for 11th place among 44 scored teams at the 2007 IC4A Outdoor Track and Field Championship. Duquesne, which competed in four of the 22 events, tied with Morgan State, each with 26 points.

Murawski's leap of 2.00 meters (6 feet, 6.75 inches) in the high jump was good for sixth, and two points, among the 18 athletes who qualified for this tournament. Murawski holds the Duquesne record in this event and finished a close second in the decathalon at this year's Atlantic 10 Conference Championship,
