Three UO track athletes went to the prestigious Mlilrose Games and performed outstandingly!
The King's sixth place finish in 7:40.41 is the second fastest indoor 3k in NCAA history.
Raevyn Rogers finished 4th in the 800 with a time of 2:00.90, missing an NCAA record by only 0.15 seconds!
Sophomore Blake Haney set a new Millrose collegiate record in the mile with 3:56.76.
Future Duck, Andrew Hunter broke his previous indoor mile high school record by going 3:57.81!!!
However, it was the alumni that stole the show. Centrowitz won the Wannamaker Mile in 3:50.57.
"Fabulous Phyllis" Francis soared her way to a 2nd place finish in the 400. Ashton Eaton took 2nd in the 60 hurdle. Eric Jenkins beat his old team mate King Cheserek by finishing 3rd in the 3k. Former Bowerman Trophy winner Laura Roesler looked outstanding in her 3rd place finish in the 800. Another Bowerman winner, Jenna Prandini took 3rd in the 60m dash.
This is a huge year, culminating with an all expense trip to Rio this summer....and things just keep looking better and better all the time. Enjoy the ride!
