Following the third place finish in the 4 X 800 at Penn Relays, the 800 U boys jumped right back up on the horse and thrilled spectators at the Payton Jordan Invitational on Saturday. Cas Loxsom excelled and posted the top NCAA 800 M time so far this year with a 1:46.74 effort! Ryan Foster also did not disappoint with a 1:47.78. Lionel Williams rounded out the PSU performances with a 1:49.33 in the event.
Bridgit Franek again threatened the record book with her 15:46.8 in the 5000 M, off the record of Kathy Mills from 1978 by 13 seconds. Sam Borchers is also rounding into shape, posting a 3:46.67 in the 1500 M.
The sprinters traveled to Ohio State where Fawn Dorr and Shavon Greaves both won 2 events apiece. Dorr demolished the field in the 400 M and the 400 M hurdles while Greaves bested all in the 100 M and 200 M. Additionally, Karlee McQuillen won the javelin for the second week in a row.
The Nittany Lions have a home meet next week in preparation for the Big Ten Championships the following week.
Sometimes it takes more than one attempt to get it right. This guy had to get back on the horse twice after failing to do a back-flip on a mega-ramp with a Big Wheel! Keep up the hard work and good things will happen.
