Walden Misses Qualifying by .01
Coach Darryl Frerker and his men and women's indoor track teams head to the Great Lakes Valley Conference Indoor Championships this weekend in Romeoville, Ill.
Frerker expects good things after last weekend's meet.
"If this past Saturday is any indication, we should move up in the standings on the guys side," said Frerker. "I was pleased with the overall team performance. I think we have the momentum up going into the conference meet."
Daniel Walden (Springfield) missed the national qualifying time by one one-hundreth of a second in the 800-meter run at the Saluki Indoor Open last Saturday, with a time of 1 minute, 55:01 seconds.
On the women's side, Frerker said they are not where they were a year ago.
"We are down compared to last year but a second-place finish last season was outstanding."
