Rudzinska Breaks Another School Record

For the third consecutive week Beata Rudzinska (left) has broken a school record. At the Doug Raymond Invitational she dropped down in distance to the 400m and ran a 56.14 breaking Lisa Clark's school record from 2001. It was a good day for 400m running. Joining Rudzinska with fast times were Deanna Caldwell, who ran 57.74 seconds, and James Baisden, who recorded an indoor PR with a 49.33 clocking. In the 60m Tamala Perryman lowered her season's best time down to 7.80 seconds. Jamie Goodwin also recorded an all-time best in the 60m with his time of 6.94. Finally Zip hurdlers ran well with Jon Morgan (8.40) and Morris Ellington (8.45) earning lifetime bests.

While the runners and jumpers competed at Kent, throwers Greg Corbitt and Dustin Shaffer travelled to Bloomington, Indiana to compete in the Indiana Invitational. Corbitt threw the shot 57' 2 ¼", his second-best effort ever. In the 35-pound weight throw he threw 60' 6 ¾", while Shaffer threw 58' 5 ¾".
