Competing at the Towson Senior Twilight Open, Ruffin cleared 2.10m in the high jump to win the event. The rookie’s jump sits atop the NEC performance list and is tied for 44th among all NCAA DI competitors. Ruffin, who won the high jump crown at the NEC Indoor Championships in February, became the first Knight to claim dual NEC Field Athlete of the Week and NEC Rookie of the Week honors since Taeco O’Garro won both on March 27, 2019.
