EMPORIA, Kan. – Saginaw Valley State University claimed two more All-America honors during day two of the NCAA Division II Outdoor Championships on Friday in Emporia, Kansas. Xavier Santiago (Onaway HS) and Sawyer Moloy (Sanford Meridian HS) finished third and fourth, respectively, in the men's high jump to earn the second All-American honors of their careers and the third top-eight placing for the Cardinals during the 2026 outdoor championship meet.

The competition came down to Santiago, and Nebraska-Kearney's Nolan Studley and Luke Brachle left at the final height (2.22m). All three athletes missed on their three attempts, keeping the original top three order of Studley, Brachle, and Santiago. Moloy cleared 2.16m on his second attempt before missing at 2.19m to claim fourth. Santiago cleared 2.19m on his final attempt and matched his school record height, which he made at the GLIAC Outdoor Championships nearly a month ago.

The high jump duo joins Jacob Walker as the three SVSU outdoor All-Americans, with one more day of competition remaining tomorrow.
