CLARK SCORES SEVEN POINTS AS CLARION FINISHES 12^TH AT THE PSAC INDOOR TRACK AND FIELD CHAMPIONSHIPS

Chris Clark scored seven of Clarion’s 11 points, as the Golden Eagles finished in 12^th place at the 2006 PSAC Indoor Track and Field Championships held Saturday and Sunday at East Stroudsburg.

Clark finished fourth in the 3,000-meter run (8:36.43) and seventh in the 5,000-meter run (15:15.55).

Jarrett Williams had a hand in the other four points for Clarion by taking sixth in the 55-meter dash (6.56) and running a leg on Clarion’s eighth-place 4x400-meter relay team (3:30.62).

Joining Williams on the relay were Zach Shekell, Marc Simbeck and Dan Patton.

The point in the relay was unexpected considering Clarion was seeded 10^th in the 10-team event nearly 14 seconds behind the 8^th place seed with the Top 8 scoring. But the Golden Eagles took advantage of Millersville being disqualified and California not finishing to earn the point. Clarion’s time was nearly 10 seconds faster than its seeded time.

NOTES – Shippensburg won the meet with 144 points with Lock Haven (115), Kutztown (92), Slippery Rock (87) and East Stroudsburg (56) rounding out the Top 5 … West Chester’s Eric Broadbent was named Outstanding Field Athlete, while Lock Haven’s Ryan Blood was the Outstanding Track Athlete.
