Indoor Update and Workouts - Jan 14, 2008

USU INVITATIONAL RESULTS
The first indoor meet in the history of Syracuse Track and Field had some great performances. For most of the TEAM, it was the first meet they had ever competed in. The results were impressive. With over 40 schools from four states competing, the Titans had some strong performances.
On the ladies side, Jessica Crawley had the highest finish as she placed 5th in the shot put with a toss of 31'09.50. Hannah Williams placed 7th in the 800m run with a time of 2:37.0. Sasha Russell narrowly missed the finals of the 60m dash and also placed 10th in the 400m dash running 1:05.60.
For the boys, Tyrell Yardley ran a great time of 7.30 to place 6th in the 60m dash. Anthony Winegar had an outstanding meet running 54.77 to place 6th in the 400m dash. His 9.32 in the 60m hurdles was good enough for 10th place. Chris Jackson ran 55.94 to place 8th in the 400m dash. Anthony, Chris, Tanner Russell and Ryan Palmer ran 1:40.54 to place 6th in the 4x200m relay.
