Robbinsville grad scores impressive triple jump Mitchell-White NJAC Rookie, Again

When you are a Cadet at West Point, the best way to impress the brass is to do something that helps Army defeat the Navy.

Well, Bonvie Fosam, a freshman from Robbinsville, did just that.

“We had someone like Bonvie do the high jump today for the first time ever because we needed her to, and she tied for third,’’ Army coach Mike Smith stated in a team press release. “In the women’s triple jump going into her final attempt, we were being swept. Navy had the top two positions going in to the final, and Bonvie on her last attempt wins the triple jump and records a lifetime best by a foot and a half. That’s hard to do for anyone, but for a freshman to know the meet is on the line and to do it that way, that just shows you what type of kid she is.”

Fosam’s winning distance of 12.47m in the triple jump was a personal best and a season best for the team as the Cadets sunk the Navy, 94.5 to 86.5 in the Star Meet.

The former Raven placed second in the high jump with a distance of 1.55m.
