Senior Adam Nelson has a strange habit of throwing heavy objects and breaking things. Check that. Nelson doesn't just like to break any old thing that falls in his way -- he likes breaking records. Yeah, that's more like it.
The proof was all in one throw this weekend as Nelson's put of 58-8 shattered his own school record of 57-10, set in 1994. His performance led a Dartmouth sweep of the top four places against Vermont.
As this was only Nelson's first meet of the season, his Herculean toss was only the first of many to come.
