Kent State #3

The third trip to Kent State this season brought new conference qualifiers and several season bests. In the 55m, Chas Moore-Seymore and Josh Brannan qualified for the conference meet in their first race of the season. Moore-Seymore came back and qualified in the 200m later in the afternoon. Hannah Smith improved on her season best in the hurdles. Beth Muller, Becca Lendyak, and Alley Mikovich all had season bests in the 200m. As a result, all three are currently ranked in the top 5 in the conference standings. Taylor Throckmorton, Andrew Glod, and Jacob Seigh all ran PR's in the 400. Angie Dyer and Greg Eyer ran new PR's in the 800m, while Alex Rowland and Jamie Drab improved on their season bests to qualify for conferences in the same event. Annie Ginty improved upon her season best in the 5000m. Adding to the already deep list of conference qualifiers in the men's distance events, Matt Brush ran a 4:26.2 mile and Zac Ross finished close behind him in 4:27.36. Chris Corkins, Ryan Sullivan, and Pat McLaughlin all added their names to the list of 3k conference qualifiers.

The next meet will be the conference championships on March 6-7 at Denison. Please come out and support the Gators!
