THE RUNDOWN
COLLEGE STATION, Texas -
Baylor's track and field team competed in four races Friday in advance of a full day of action Saturday at the Texas A&M Aggie Invitational at Gilliam Indoor Track Stadium.

On the men's side, Baylor had two distance medley relay teams in action. BU's first team of Greg Bostick, Nick Ucherek, Josh Bethany and Jonathan Tijerina finished in a season-best time of 10:02.39 to place fourth.

Baylor's second team of Derwin Graham, Robert Dutton, Matt League and Chris McElroy took sixth in 10:15.84.

Baylor's women's distance medley relay squad of Sofia Pitouli, Kiana Hawn, Jessica Purtell and Ann-Marie Dunlap were fourth. The quartet produced a time of 12:09.06. Individually, Baylor had two participants in the women's and one in the men's 5,000-meter race. All three runners recorded season-best times.

Senior Sarah Guhl placed fourth in a time of 18:13.85, while senior Lauren Hierholzer was sixth in 18:52.70.

For the men, junior Kyle Scanlan was third in 15:06.34

TOP QUOTE #1
"For our men's DMR crew, (Greg) Bostick opened it up pretty well and (Josh) Bethany had a collegiate PR split, so that helped. Jonathan (Tijerina) ran a really solid closing leg. It was a little spread out, but he competed really well." - assistant coach Jon Capron

TOP QUOTE #2
"I thought the 5K runners competed well. They all had season bests, but they are capable of more. Kyle's (Scanlan) race went out a little slow and he would have had to take it all himself if he was going to be any faster." - Capron

WHAT'S NEXT
Baylor returns to action at the Texas A&M Team Invitational on Saturday. The meet is slated to start at 12:30 p.m. with field and running events. Running event finals begin at 2 p.m.
