Hyde landed on the podium twice last weekend at the Red Flash Open, earning gold in the shot put and silver in the discus. Reaching 18.03m in the shot put, the junior smashed his own meet, facility and school record. In addition, Hyde’s IC4A-qualifying throw, which ranks first in the NEC by 1.23m, is currently the 65th-best mark in the nation. The Somerset, PA native also had a solid performance in the discus, hitting 44.97m to round out the top-10 in the NEC this season. This is Hyde’s first NEC Field Athlete of the Week award.
