NEW ORLEANS -- All-Region honors for the 2025 NCAA Division III Outdoor Track & Field season were announced on Wednesday by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association, with six Bates men's track and field athletes making the list.
Top-5 individuals in each event from each region earned All-Region honors, in addition to each of the members of a top-3 ranked relay team.
- Sophomore Matt Charpentier (Cape Neddick, Maine) is an All-Region performer for the second straight year in the outdoor shot put, based on his winning throw of 49-8.5 (15.15m) at the Wesleyan Swanson Invitational on March 22nd.
- First-year Ryan Glaser (Rockport, Maine) joins Charpentier as an All-Region thrower, debuting in impressive fashion this year in the hammer throw. His season-best toss of 171-7 (52.29m) at the New England Division III Outdoor Championships was good for third place at the meet and All-Region honors.
- Junior Carson Moellering (Natick, Mass.) is an All-Region performer in the decathlon for the first time in his career, based on his career-best point total of 5,673, achieved at the New England Division III Outdoor Championships. Moellering's performance included six personal records and was good for third place at the meet.
- Senior Andrew Mottur (Rumford, R.I.) wrapped up his collegiate career in style as an All-Region 3,000-meter steeplechaser. His winning time of 9:08.87 at the NESCAC Championships is the fifth fastest in Bates history.
- Sophomore Callahan Porter (Chester, N.J.) won the Maine state title in the 1,500 meters with a personal-record time of 3:52.33, good for a tie for seventh on the Bates all-time performance list. These are the first All-Region honors of Porter's career.
- Senior captain Truman Williams (Montclair, N.J.) rounds out the All-Region honorees for the Bates men's outdoor track and field team, earning recognition for his performance in the 400 meters. Williams' fastest time in the outdoor 400 this year came at the F.I.R.E Invitational, where he crossed the finish line in 48.85 seconds. Williams and Charpentier were both also All-Region performers during the indoor season.
The Bobcats won the outdoor Maine State Championship, placed seventh at NESCACs, and took sixth out of 36 teams at New Englands this year. They recently wrapped up the 2025 campaign at the MIT Final Qualifier.
