2016 SF State Distance Carnival (Final)


Back for a second day of action at the Pepsi Florida Relays and the SF State Distance Carnival, ART U track & field turned in various high finishes across the board.

GAINSVILLE, Fla. – ART U had a lighter day of action in the Pepsi Florida Relays at the James G. Pressly Stadium. The Urban Knights contested one single event, the men's 4x100m relay. Marlon Britton, Mobolade Ajomale, Alexander McNally, and Craig Mattox combined to go 41.84 to close out the weekend.
 
SAN FRANCISCO – The second and final day of the SF State Distance Carnival saw the 4x100m quartet of Sabrina Anderson, Rian Young-Werner, Amanda Odesjo, and Jasmine Grace finish third of 11. Their time of 47.77 was just 0.77 off of a NCAA Nationals provisional qualifier. Grace also would place eighth of 60 in the 100m dash, going 12.40 for a new season best.

In the men's 110m hurdles, Quinlan Wright took third of 15 with a time of 15.11. He later posted a 56.15 in the 400m hurdles. The women's 400m hurdles featured a 1:04.44 from Kiara Clark that put her fourth in program history.

"I'm glad we were represented by such hardworking athletes at the Florida Relays this weekend," said director of track & field/cross country Torrey Olson. "Back home in San Francisco, I was especially proud of our freshmen, Kiara Clark, Ashley Brown, Joshua Browne, Giulia McIsaac, Jarred Gregory-Grimes who all competed and set personal records in every event they contested. We have good things ahead of us."

ART U next sends a contingent to the Cal State East Bay Invitational (Apr. 16) while another will travel to Southern California for the Bryan Clay Invitational (Apr. 14-15), Mt. SAC Relays (Apr. 14-16), and Beach Invitational (Apr. 17).
