Through the Point

Episode 30: NCAA III National Record Holder Tim VanLiew


Listen Later

Welcome to the Through the Point Podcast, the world’s #1 (and only) javelin specific podcast

This week I was fortunate enough to have on someone who as a former DIII thrower myself, I admired for his amazing performances

That person is NCAA DIII record holder Tim VanLiew

Tim threw 75.55m at a DIII school so we need to appreciate that for a second, completely insane haha

Tim was also a soccer player in college who considered track his second sport. He threw a bit in high school but didn’t even plan to throw at his school of Rutgers Camden

But as with many of my guests, the javelin somehow makes its way into their lives

A crazy fact about Tim is that he said he only threw off a real runway TWICE while training in college

My biggest take away from this was our discussion about the right “fit” for schools and not just focusing on the glamour. So high school athletes, pay attention! Haha

I appreciate Tim taking the time to talk to me, and hopefully you can all learn something from it!

As always, thanks for listening and enjoy!
