TOWSON, Md. – The Landmark Conference announced Tuesday morning the 2019-20 Indoor Track & Field All-Conference Teams.

Moravian College freshman Crystal Robinson was honored as the Landmark Women's Track Athlete of the Year. Robinson won a pair of titles, capturing the 200-meter dash in 26.43 seconds and winning the 400-meter dash in 1:00.55. She was also a member of the 4x400 meter relay team that captured the gold with a time of 4:10.80.

Elizabethtown College junior Ean Mann won three gold medals and broke his own school record in the 60m dash on his way to earning the Landmark Men's Track Athlete of the Year. Mann, who owned the school's 60m record heading into the meet, broke it in the preliminaries when he ran 6.99 to qualify for the final with the fastest seed time. Then, in the final, Mann kicked it up a notch and turned on the afterburners to scorch the field with a 6.96 to lower his new school record time and win the gold. The junior also set a new PR in the 200m, winning another gold in 22.69, to improve his third-place standing on the all-time list. He was also a member of the winning 4x200m relay.

Moravian sophomore Amanda Crooks was named as the conference women's Rookie of the Year. Crooks, who is competing in her first year at the collegiate level, broke her own school record as well as the Landmark record with a time of 7.73 seconds in the preliminaries of the 60-meter dash before running even faster in the final with a time of 7.66 seconds, currently ranked seventh in the nation on the Track & Field Results Reporting System list, to win the race. The top 20 individuals in each event as of March 7 will compete at the NCAA Division III National Championships in two weeks. 

Competing in his first-ever indoor championships, Catholic junior CeeJa Beckett earned the conference's Rookie of the Year honors. Beckett finsihed second in the 60m (7.22), long jump (6.80m), and was a member of the second-place 4x200 meter relay team (1:35.17).

Susquehanna's Sara Arbogast, a three-time Landmark Athlete of the Week earned two trips to the top of the podium on Saturday. The junior won the long jump with her leap of 5.44m before winning the gold in the triple jump with a mark of 10.98m.

Susquehanna's Chris Petraskie became the first-ever four-time Landmark Field Athlete of the Year on Saturday. The senior closed out his final indoor championship winning the high jump (1.93m) for the fourth straight year, winning the long jump (7.01m) for the third straight year, and was the runner-up in the triple jump (13.41m).

Moravian Director of Track & Field and Cross Country Jesse Baumann and his staff of assistants – Jonathan D'Ottavi, Dan McSurdy, Rob Shaffer, Abby Schaffer, Chris Ossont and Meg Noble – were honored as both the Landmark Conference Men’s and Women’s Coaching Staffs of the Year.
