Box Score Conway, AR - The Tiger men's and women's track
and field teams both finished fourth at the 2010 SCAC
Championships.
All-American Zach Brush highlights day two with new SCAC record
and personal best. Brush successfully completed a tough
double on the second day of competition. First up for Brush
was the 1500m run, in which he not only finished second behind
teammate Chass Armstrong, but also notched a new personal best of
3:55.54. A short time later he ran the 800m, in which he was seeded
first. He not only finished first (1:53.70), but also broke his own
SCAC record, which he set last year.
Senior All-American Chass Armstrong became the first SCAC male
to win the 1500m four times in a row with a time of 3:54.71. He
also broke his own SCAC record, a record which he's now
broken three times. Senior All-American Bryant Wright helped with
the sweep in the second day of distance events by taking first in
the 5000m run (15:20.02). Also earning a SCAC title was sophomore
All-American Justin Campbell, who hit another provisional mark in
the discus with a throw of 47.59m.
Other notable performers were freshman Riley Walker and senior
All-American Brennen Peters who went third and fourth respectively
in the 110m hurdles. Also, Nigel Robinson finished fourth in the
100m dash with a time of 11.42.
On the women's side, the 4x100m relay (Tolley St. Clair,
Corey Callahan, Nicole Fisk, and Kimberly Simmons) came in second
behind Rhodes with a time of 50.14. Senior Beth Tweedy came in
second in the triple jump (10.95m) and tied for third in the high
jump with teammate Elana Edwards, both with a jump of 5-01.75
(5.50m). Junior Sonia Brady placed fourth in the javelin and fifth
in the discus. Also, sophomore Jasmine Johnson finished 4th in the
100m hurdle finals in a time of 15.72 seconds.
Both the men's and women's teams finished a
disappointing fourth place to end the SCAC championships. The

hopes of achieving more qualifying marks for the NCAA Championships
on May 27th.
