Athlete of the Week: Keith Onto, Track & Field


May 9-15, 2011

Senior Keith Onto placed second in the decathlon at the IC4A Championships over the weekend, earning 6,919 points. He won the high jump with a season-best leap of 2.02 meters, and he placed second in both the 110-meter hurdles (15.40) and the long jump (6.74m). His mark in the long jump was a UMBC best this season. A native of Point Pleasant, N.J., Onto finishes his career as the school record holder in both the heptathlon and decathlon, and he was named UMBC’s co-Outstanding Senior Male Athlete at last week’s varsity awards banquet.
