Skrip breaks 600 meter school record

NORTHFIELD, Minn. - Kevin Skrip won the 600m with the fastest time in St. Olaf history (1:21.73), breaking a record set in 1989 by Steve Mathre (1:21.98).

Aaron Dunphy, James McFarlin and Joe Coffey also captured individual titles to lead the Oles to a second place team finish at Tostrud Center on Saturday afternoon.

Dunphy won the 60m hurdles by six thousandths of a second with a final time of 8.692 seconds.  McFarlin, who competed in the 400m last night at the Snowshoe Open, won both the 60m (7.14) and the 200m (22.71), and Coffey returned to action with a strong performance in the mile, winning the event in 4:23.10.

Freshmen Zach Hinz and Michael Wegter each ran season-bests in the mile to finish 3rd and 4th behind Coffey in the mile.  The 3000m featured a pack of five Oles finishing 2nd-6th, including three sub-9 minute performances by Tayler Aarness, Keith Ketola, and Calvin Lehn.

Joe Pugh ran a season-best time of 51.98 in the 400m to finish third.  Pugh also competed in both the 4x200 and the 4x400 meter relays.
