Penn State's Extended Family at Nationals


Bridget Franek qualified for the World Championships in Berlin with her third place finish in the 3000 M Steeplechase at the USATF Nationals. Her time of 9:36.74 is another PSU record. I hope to hear from her at the World Championships! She continues PSU's great steeplechse tradition.

Other PSU (and honorary alumi golfers!) notables in no particular order:
  • Rebecca Donaghue, 5th 5000 M, 15:36.09.
  • James Carney, 4th 10000 M, 28:13.37.
  • Shakeema Welsch, 1st, Triple Jump, 46' 11".
  • Anya Uzoh, 6th JuniorDecathlon, 6671 points.
  • Matt Lincoln, 4th 1500 M, 3:49.52 in glorious and free Canada.
Any other results I missed, please let me know. As Malmo would say, "I have my best men on it!"

    Thanks for the update. I put them on their own post also. "My best men" really help me out sometimes!
