Whelton set a school record in winning the heptathlon with a score of 4,620 points at the Brockport Golden Eagle Multi and Invitational over the weekend. He broke the previous school mark of 4,572, set by Matt Joseph in 2009. Whelton set personal bests in the 60-meters (7.30 seconds), long jump (6.35 meters), and shot put (8.15 meters). On Saturday, he recorded a leap of 4.60 meters in the pole vault, which would have won the regular competition. It is the sixth best score in all of Division III this season.
