Pierre Repeats as USTFCCCA East Region Indoor Field Athlete of the Year; 12 Tigers Garner All-Region Honors in 2023-24

Nishorn Pierre (Grenada/Jamaica College) repeated as the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) East Region Men's Field Athlete of the Year, highlighting 12 Tigers to earn All-Region accolades for the 2023-24 season. 
 
The top five individuals in each event from each region, in addition to each of the members of a top-three ranked relay team, receive All-Region honors. Only USTFCCCA member programs are eligible for awards.
 
Pierre ended the indoor regular season ranked among the top-two athletes regionally in all three jumping events, including top marks in the high jump (2.15m) and triple jump (15.06m). He won all three jumping events at the ECC Indoor Track & Field Championships and then earned Second-Team All-America honors with a ninth-place finish at the NCAA DII Indoor Track & Field Championships just a few weeks later. 
 
The junior would go on to add on All-Region accolades in both the outdoor high jump and triple jump, leading the region in the former with a clearance of 2.12m.
 
  • Kouto Anyika (Philadelphia, Pa./Pennwood) also produced All-Region performance in five events, including the 200m and 400m in both indoor and outdoor seasons
    • He led the region with a time of 47.56 in the indoor season en route to eventual All-America honors, before eventually qualifying for nationals in the event in the outdoor season as well
  • Terrence Jones (East Orange, N.J./William Allen/LCTI) received three All-Region accolades, notably reaching NCAA provisionals in the indoor triple jump (14.77m) and outdoor 400m hurdles (53.20)
  • Javon Bowen (Kingston, Jamaica/Jamaica College) and Odane Smith (Saint Catherine, Jamaica/Edwin Allen) each led the region with NCAA provisionals, with Bowen marking at 7.38m in the indoor long jump and Smith at 15.05m in the outdoor triple jump
    • Bowen was also All-Region in the indoor 60m (6.88), while Smith was in the indoor high jump (2.00m)
  • Isaiah Davenport (Pleasantville, N.J./Pleasantville) was the sixth Tiger to reach an NCAA provisional, clearing 2.04m in the indoor triple jump en route to All-Region accolades
    • The freshman was All-Region in the outdoor high jump as well 
  • The final multi All-Region honoree for Holy Family was J'kwann Hamilton (Smithville, Jamaica/Edwin Allen (New Mexico Highlands University)) (outdoor 400H and 4x400m relay)
  • Rounding out the Tigers' representatives for All-Region were Ernest Roberston (indoor triple jump), Skyler Salay (Burlington Township, N.J./Burlington Township) (outdoor high jump), Desi Stroud (Mays Landing, N.J./ACIT) (indoor long jump), Kimani Smith (Smithville, Jamaica/Edwin Allen) (outdoor 4x400m relay) and Nafis Zollicoffer (Philadelphia, Pa./Parkway West) (outdoor 4x400m relay).
