FAIRFAX, Va. – Senior Jacob Hostetler posted the fastest 400-meter preliminary time of the day as men's track and field opened day one of the Atlantic 10 Indoor Championship Saturday at George Mason Field House.
Hostetler claimed first in the opening 400m heat of the day, stopping the clock in 49.08 seconds. His time held up as the quickest of the day as he heads to Sunday's finals as the man to beat. He will also compete in the 200-meter dash final after posting a prelim time of 22.16 seconds Saturday.
Also securing a spot in Sunday's final will be sophomore sprinter Miles Hollimon in the 60-meter dash. Hollimon crossed the line in 7.10 seconds, tied with two others, but the 'Cat advanced after the finish was broken down to the thousandth of a second.
