International Implement Invitational (RI) Results

Medalist in the U18 boy’s hammer throw.

The annual International Implement Invitational gives throwers a chance to compete with international implements like the 3-kilogram (under 18 girls), 5-kilogram hammer (under 18 boys), 6-kilogram hammer (under 20 boys), and more. At this year’s edition Bobby Colantonio (Barrington, RI) provided the biggest highlight. Throwing the 5-kilogram hammer, which will be used at the World Youth Championships in July, Colantonio launched a throw of 78.18 meters. That mark ranks him fourth in the world for under 18 athletes in the young 2015 season. His teammate Adam Kelly (Barrington, RI) hit a personal best with the 6-kilogram hammer that also ranks him in the world top 20 in the under 20 age group. In all, there were nation-leading marks all over and meet records in all but one category.
