BROWN BRINGS THE SPEED
- Chasatea Brown ran the 400 hurdles in 1:01.51 to place sixth Saturday. She trimmed more than 2.5 seconds off her personal best from a year ago and moved into the top 10 in program history.
- Brown's time was the fastest for a BGSU student-athlete since 2015 and moves her into seventh in school history, passing Kathy Frase (1987), Demetra Taylor (2013) and Deb Romsak (1976).
- Brown also ran a leg on the 800 relay team that was fourth at the Raleigh Relays in 1:38.02. That time was third in school history and less than a second shy of the school record time of 1:37.80 set by Jeanette Pettigrew, Taylor Rambo, Brittany Sinclair and Allison Weimer in 2013.
ROCKIN' THE RELAYS
- Chasatea Brown, Mis'cha Sellers, Cortisha Short and Ryen Draper ran the 800 relay in 1:38.02. That time was third in school history and just .22 seconds shy of the school record.
- The 1600 relay team ran a 3:53.07 to finish 15th at the meet.
OTHER NOTABLE EFFORTS
- Cortisha Short opened the outdoor campaign with a time of 24.99 seconds in the 200. That was faster than her season-best time of 25.11 during the indoor campaign.
- Elizabeth Iversen threw the hammer 49.44m (162-2) to lead three Falcons Saturday. In her first outdoor meet, redshirt freshman Daija Young was just behind at 47.61m (156-2).
IN THEIR WORDS
- "We had a positive start to the outdoor season this weekend. As with any season, we have a lot of steps to take along this journey, but if everyone takes care of business this month, that should happen." – Head Coach Lou Snelling
UP NEXT
- BGSU will hold its only home meet of the season Friday as the Falcons host Toledo in the annual Battle of I-75. The meet is scheduled to begin at 3 pm at Whittaker Track.
