Track’s Turpin Sets Another Pole Vault Record
Sarah Turpin (Belleville) broke another personal and school record with her leap of 10 feet at the USA Open in Carbondale this past weekend.
Turpin has broken the school record several times during the indoor season and will likely break the current outdoor record of 8 feet, 6 inches held by Crystal Anderson when the outdoor season begins in March.
Coach Darryl Frerker still has a watchful eye on the national peformance list, which has three SIUE performances on it.
Kevin Koller (Centralia) is listed at 10th with his performance of 48.62 at 400 meters. Richard Skirball (Granite City) is ninth at 800 meters with his time of 1:52.68. The men’s 4 X 400-meter relay is currently 13th overall.
SIUE heads to the GLVC Indoor Championships this weekend at Lewis. The field events are scheduled to start at 11 a.m. with the running events set to go off at noon.
