Ajamu Olaniyan (Dean Cash), (1989-93)
Ajamu Olaniyan is the university's all-time triple jumper-and holds that honor in the conference too. Olaniyan, who competed in college as Dean Cash, still owns conference indoor and outdoor records in the triple jump.
He and teammate Bill Schroeder are the only Eagles to break the 5--feet barrier. Olaniyan holds the outdoor school record in the triple jump, including the Veterans Memorial Field Complex record. No other jumper at the UW-L has won as many titles in the triple jump as Olaniyan.
He was part of teams that won national championships in the NCAA indoor and outdoor events in 1991, 1992, and 1993. He was also on teams that brought home eight conference championships teams.
