WALNUT, Calif. – Stanford freshman Will Floyd made his collegiate outdoor debut and made an immediate impact at the Mt. SAC Relays on Friday.
Floyd ran the 200 meters in 21.16, which immediately moves him into Stanford's all-time outdoor top-10, at No. 10. Floyd also strengthened his hold on the No. 5 spot among all freshmen in Stanford history.
Stanford's sprinters, hurdlers, and field-event athletes were featured at Mt. San Antonio College's Hilmer Lodge Stadium. Eleven Cardinal women and seven men competed Friday.
Tess Stapleton continued her streak of outstanding performances. Stapleton set personal records in two events – the 100 hurdles and the long jump, placing second and third, respectively, in the collegiate divisions.
For the third time this year, Stapleton ran a lifetime best in the 100 hurdles. Her time of 13.47 moves her up one spot on Stanford's all-time list, to No. 4.
In the long jump, she has reached lifetime bests four times since the beginning of the indoor season, including Friday's 20-3 ¾ (6.19m).
In the women's 400, Cydney Wright ran a sub-53 for the first time, placing third in the collegiate division in 52.71, a big improvement from an already strong year-old personal best of 53.02. Wright is now No. 5 all-time at Stanford, moving up from No. 7.
In all, Stanford athletes combined to set five personal records at Mt. SAC. Among them was Teagan Zwaanstra in the women's long jump (19-8 ¾, 6.01m), freshman Cate Peters in the women's 200 (24.68), and freshman Dylan Davis in the men's 200 (21.61).
