During the PIAA track and field championships at Shippensburg on May 25-26, five Mercyhurst Prep seniors missed their graduation while competing.

That didn’t stop Philip Martone, Carly Vicary, David Benczkowski, Catherine Stark and Paul Cancilla from graduating. The team held its own graduation ceremony in Shippensburg after the five ran. Above is a photograph of the group.
