WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - The Boilermakers open the outdoor season on Thursday with the three-day Shamrock Invitational in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The meet is hosted by Coastal Carolina.
Thursday will be busy with the decathlon and heptathlon, as well as the men's hammer throw and men's and women's 10,000-meter runs, though the Boilers only have entrants in the men's hammer among those events. Chukwuebuka Enekwechi will take his first crack at the hammer fresh off the NCAA Championships where he finished third in the weight throw. Luke Lewis is also scheduled to compete in his first hammer throw competition as a Boilermaker at 11 a.m. ET.
Purdue will be much busier on Friday. Six women will compete in the 100-meter dash, including Devynne Charlton who made the trip after competing in the 60m hurdles at the NCAA Championships last week. Carmiesha Cox is also scheduled to compete after a historic season on the indoor track, where she broke the 200m school record, and was a member of two of the top three 4x400m relay teams in program history. Charlton will also get her first crack at the 100m hurdles on Friday, alongside Cierra Brown and Shantyra Delaney.
The women's Big Ten Freshman of the Year on the women's side will make her outdoor debut in the 400m hurdles. Symone Black is scheduled to compete in the event Saturday at 2:15 p.m. Micaela Hazelwood, Chelsie Meeks, Elizabeth Iversen and Kayla Zink are scheduled to compete for the title in the discus on Saturday.
Matthew McClintock will run in the men's 5k. He is the school record holder both indoors and out in the event and is scheduled to run at 7:50 p.m. Friday. Kinard Rolle will make his Purdue debut on Saturday with the men's 400m dash. Rolle missed the indoor season with injury.
Nicholas Parks and Tyler Askew made return trips to Coastal Carolina, as both attended the university before transferring to Purdue. Parks will run in the 400m, while Askew will long jump and triple jump.
