SALEM, Ore. – Redshirt freshman Jared Bassett won the 3,000-meter Steeplechase, and the Portland Pilots men’s and women’s track and field teams shattered twelve personal records at the Willamette Invitational at the Charles Bowles Track last Friday and Saturday.
Bassett, who hails from Coos Bay, Ore., claimed the top spot with a time of 9:19.06, a full four seconds faster than second-place finisher Portland State’s John Lawrence (9:23.35).
Freshman Trey Parry placed second in the 1,500-meters with a time of 3:55.65 behind unattached runner Ian Cronin (3:53.34). Sophomore Alfred Kipchumba crossed the line in fifth in 3:57.77.
On the women’s side, highlights included sophomore Lyndy Davis who placed third overall in the 5,000-meter run with a PR time of 17:04.19. Redshirt freshman Marit Tegelaar posted a PR of 17:20.66 to finish fourth overall. While sophomore Sarah Auer clocked a PR of her own in 18:22.53, fast enough to win her section.
It was more of the same for the Pilots in the 1,500-meter race as sophomore Hailey Knettles went on to post her PR of 4:43.46, to finish sixth overall.
“Everyone ran great,” said women’s head coach Ian Solof. “We had a ton of PRs and some very tough racing from Sarah Auer, Hailey Knettles, Lyndy Davis, and Lindsay Baker. I was happy with the times and proud of the efforts everyone gave.”
Portland next competes at the John Knight Twilight in Monmouth, Ore. on April 9th.
