Senior jumper Keyandre Midgett returns for VMI having won the SoCon's Male Most Outstanding Field Performer the past two indoor seasons while sophomore thrower Rafe Clendenin was named last  year's SoCon Freshman of the Year.
 
On the women's side, Eleyah Armstrong qualified for the NCAA Outdoor Championships East Preliminaries in the 100 meter to represent the VMI program on a national scale.
