Track: Quick Day, Quicker Update

The final day of the NCAA Outdoor meet is flying by right now. I’m gonna do my best to catch you up to speed so far:

• First, Arkansas’ Shelise Williams ran a personal best of 52.01 in the 400 final to finish seventh and secure two points for the Razorbacks. Williams was the only women’s team member participating today. Arkansas finishes with 10 points.

• Nkosinza Balumbu is currently fifth in the triple jump final. Dorian Ulrey will be running the 1,500 in a few minutes.

• Some national champions: Oregon’s Andrew Wheating won a dramatic 800, diving across the finish line to beat Texas’ Tevan Everett; Geena Gall of Michigan won the 800 women’s title; Florida State’s Charles Clark picks up the 200 men’s crown while Texas A&M’s Porscha Lucas grabs the women’s title; Auburn’s Joanna Atkins wins the women’s 400 title; Florida State’s Jonathan Borlee wins the men’s 400; Michigan’s Tiffany Ofili just won the women’s 100 hurdle title.

We’ll be back with more as soon as we can. The 1,500 finals and 4×400 finals are the two running events left.
