Tiger Paw Results | Iowa State Classic Results
CLEMSON, S.C. - Between the Tiger Paw and the Iowa State Classic, the Boilermakers collected 12 personal-bests, including seven program top 10 marks and two Purdue records over the two days.
On Day Two, Jah Strange not only smashed his previous personal-best in the men's triple jump by 0.22 meters, but set a Big Ten season-high and moved to No. 3 in the Purdue record books along the way. The Indo, California native tallied a 52-05.50 / 15.99m mark in the event to blow the conference-best out by 0.13 meters.
The Boilermakers excelled in the 200-meter dash with both the men's and women's teams picking up Purdue top 10 times. Freshman Camille Christopher became the ninth-fastest Boilermaker to run in the women's 200-meter dash after crossing the finish line in just 24.40. Shortly after, junior Waseem Williams improved upon his mark by running the dash in 21.33 to catapult from No. 10 to No. 7 in the Boilermaker record books.
Christopher placed 15th overall, while Williams took 11th in the invitational race.
The 4x400 relay team of Shawndail McLaren, Samson Colebrooke, Malcolm Dotson and Brian Faust ran the sixth-fastest time by a Purdue men's relay team, clocking in at 3:08.52 for third-place.
New banners will hang for the men's 400- and 3,000-meter races after Brian Faust and Jaret Carpenter obliterated the Boilermaker records on Friday.
Up Next
Two weeks remain before heading to Michigan for the Big Ten Championships. First, a select group of Boilermakers will travel to Notre Dame next weekend for the Alex Wilson Invite on February 16.
