Men's 800 Relay Sets Indoor Record at Saturday Night Shootout

NEW YORK - The Swarthmore College men's track and field team returned to the Armory Track & Field Center for NYU's Saturday Night Shootout.

The legs of Corey Branch, Jonas Oppenheimer, Erick White and Paul Green teamed for an ECAC-qualifying 4x800-meter relay third place finish of 7:59.12 - the mark sets an indoor program record. Swarthmore now has the top mark on the season in the Centennial Conference. 

In the 1,600-meter sprint medley relay, Gavin Fahey, Jason Heo, Josh Gregory, and Stuart Arbuckle paced the loop in 3:49.31 to place fourth. 

The Garnet continued to show it's strength in the mid-distance runs as sophomore Dominic Castro-Wehr placed third in the 1,000-meter run with his personal-best 2:36.18 finish. Freshman John Gagnon clocked 2:46.65 for seventh place and senior Richard Scott crossed the line at 2:50.61 for eighth place overall. 

Senior Stuart Russell ran a personal-best mile pace of 4:36.98 followed by senior Dan Kalamarides at 4:48.98 in the four-heat event. 

Sophomore Spencer Friske crushed his personal-best mark in the 3,000-meter run with a finishing time of 8:56.61 among 35 other competitors. Junior Alec Toro also notched his personal-best in the event with a 9:24.61 time. 

Swarthmore returns to action on Saturday, January 25 at the Haverford Invitational beginning at 12:00 p.m.
