Indoor Track Update - January 26, 2009

WSU INVITATIONAL
The Titan Indoor Record list took a beating at the WSU meet Friday and Saturday. Admittedly, it’s a little easier to set a record at a young school, but the performances were impressive nonetheless. At this stage of our training, improvement is our main focus. And school and personal records are an indication that we are moving in the right direction.
Tyrell Yardley had the top individual performance of the meet as he won the 55m dash in 6.53. That is the #12 time ever run in Utah. Chris Jackson shattered the school record in the 55m hurdles as he placed 2nd in 8.32. Austin Costley set two records placing 4th in the 400m dash (53.80) and also broke the 1600m run record running 4:45.31. Aaron Hill raised his record in the shot put to 42'08". Preston Williams also improved his school record running the 800 in 2:11.56.
Hannah Williams ran 12:04.94 to place 3rd in the 3200m run setting a school record in the process. McKayla Williams lowered her own record in the 400m dash to 1:02.16. Sasha Russell’s 10.02 in the 55m hurdles and Lindsey McFarland’s 7.91 in the 55m dash were also new records. Sam Fleming’s 11'10.50" is a record in the long jump. Jessica Pauni threw 34'00.75 to place 4th in the shot put. The mark was just ½ inch off her own record.
There were several other great performances that did not result in school records. Shelby Cadwell ran two very good 400's in the open 400 and 4x400m relay. Kelsey Westbroek just missed records in the 55m and 200m dashes. Kuyler Thompson had a good PR in the shot put. Kyle Kelly ran his usual tough distance double in the 1600 and 3200m runs. Chris Smith was an ironman running some very good times in the 55, 200, 400 and 4x400. Alex Garrett’s two 400's and high jump were probably not what he wanted, but he continues to work hard and will continue to improve. Dillon Cadwell does a great job of working hard in practice and running very hard in meets. His times will continue to drop.
Eventually, complete results can be found at:
