The freshmen duo of Jordan Benson and Bryce Anthony continued their early success in the 60-meter hurdles. Benson got the best of his classmate today, placing second with a time of 8.33 seconds, while Anthony took fourth in 8.39.
Benson claimed a win in high jump, clearing 1.83-meters (6'0). The Wildcats also had success in the triple jump led by Jack Curtin's second-place leap of 13.41-meters (44'0). Freshmen Dylan Ameres and junior Langston Stephens were third and fourth with marks of 13.22 and 13.21 meters, respectively.
