School Records in 300m Highlight Track & Field at Centre Indoor Showcase

DANVILLE, Ky. - The Piedmont University track & field program saw a pair of school records fall on Saturday at the Centre Indoor Showcase in the 300m. Silas Goolsby won the event with a school record 35.42 in the men's 300m while Allison Cantrell ran a 45.05 to set the school record coming in 6th in the women's 300m.

There were several additional personal bests set on Saturday including Matthew Blocksom in the men's shot put (11.89m), Ian Grimes in the men's weight throw (8.68m) and Allison Cantrell in the women's 60m (8.37 - in prelims) and women's 300m.

Across the field events, many improved upon impressive marks to begin the season last week including Johnny Taylor with a 12.23m mark in the men's triple jump. In the pole vault, Haley McLeer improved with a 2.55m coming in ninth overall and Tucker Pulliam bested his season-opening mark with a 3.00m. Both Kayla Ward (10.61m) and Allie Feltus (8.89m) posted longer distances in the shot put in the second week of competition as well.
