Horvat breaks Croatian National Record in men's 100-meter dash
The Grand Canyon University men’s and women’s track and field teams today competed in their final meet before the NCAA Division II Outdoor Track and Field National Championships on May 23-25 in Pueblo, Colo. The Antelopes participated in a number of events at the Azusa Pacific Last Chance Qualifier in Azusa, Calif., picking up a number of NCAA Division II Automatic and Provisional Qualifying marks on both the men's and women's side.
Dario Horvat posted yet another automatic time in the men’s 100-meter dash at 10.20 seconds en route to winning the event and breaking the Croatian National record. The record had stood since 2001. He owns the fastest time among NCAA Division II athletes at 10.18 seconds, but the wind factor associated with that time does not count for record purposes (over 2.0).
Lauren Graham picked up the best women’s pole vault for GCU this season with a mark of 4.02 meters (13 feet, 2.25 inches), the fifth-best in the country.
Kevin Lashley won the men’s long jump with an automatic mark of 7.66 meters (25 feet, 1.75 inches), the third-longest in the nation.
Fred Taylor missed an additional automatic mark in the 100-meter dash by .02 seconds, posting a provisional time of 10.32 seconds. He has already run the 100-meters in an automatic time of 10.23 seconds, the third fastest nationally.
Petra Fanty and Brianne Kee both collected provisional times in the women’s 100-meter dash with marks of 11.61 seconds and 11.98 seconds, respectively. Fanty’s time marked her fastest of the season and the fifth-best nationally.
In the men’s 200-meter dash, Lance Parker picked up a provisional time at 20.95 seconds, his fastest of the season and eighth-best in the country. Shavine Hodges (23.43 seconds) ran the second-fastest time in the nation on the women’s side of the same event, surpassing her previous-best this season.
Samantha Bogatz added a provisional mark in the women’s 200-meter dash at 23.93 seconds. Bogatz already owns an automatic mark in the event (23.75 seconds).
Tyler Sipes placed second in the men’s 110-meter hurdles with an automatic time of 14.04 seconds, but the wind speed at 3.2 m/s will not allow for the mark to count. Sipes already owns the third-best time in the country at 13.89 seconds, an automatic qualifier.
In the women’s 100-meter hurdles, Maria Kropf collected a provisional time of 14.31 seconds. Ramon Cooper posted a provisional mark in the men’s 400-meter hurdles with a time of 51.61 seconds, his fastest of the season and the third-best in the country.
Jessica Yates collected a season-best mark of 1.68 meters (5 feet, 6 inches) in the women’s high jump.
Kee finished second in the women’s long jump with a provisional mark of 5.90 meters (19 feet, 4.25 inches). Amber Yingling was just behind her teammate in third with a leap of 5.87 meters (19 feet, 3.25 inches).
Yingling also picked up a provisional mark in the women’s triple jump at 12.50 meters (41 feet, 0.25 inches). Yates leaped 11.87 meters (38 feet, 11.5 inches) to collect a provisional mark as well.
On the men’s side, Cooper (7.37 meters) and Karlin Stewart (7.23 meters) each added provisional marks and picked up their longest jumps of the season.
Stewart was another double-provisional mark qualifier today, leaping 14.61 meters (47 feet, 11.25 inches) in the men’s triple jump, his best of the season.
Brandon Childs posted his season-best pole vault, a provisional mark of 4.82 meters (15 feet, 9.75 inches).
In the women’s discus throw, Vanessa Levy collected yet another provisional qualifier of 46.57 meters (152 feet, 9 inches).
