March 11, 2005Sawyer, Rose Advance to Saturday's Finals BOSTON - Tairisha Sawyer (Chicago) and Kyle Rose (Kankakee) advanced to Saturday's finals with their preliminary performance at the NCAA Division II Indoor Track and Field Championships at Reggie Lewis Track and Athletic Center. Sawyer, the Great Lakes Valley Conference Athlete of the Year, advanced to the finals with the eighth-best time at 200 meters. Her time of 24.65 is a new SIUE record. Sawyer, however, was not as fortunate in the 60-meter dash. She ran the 11th fastest time at 7.76 and will not be in Saturday's final. Rose, a freshman, was one of three SIUE runners in the 400-meter dash. Rose ran the sixth-fastest time at 48.31, a new school record. SIUE teammates Jonathan Bannister (Plano, Texas) and senior Jeff Fearday (Teutopolis) placed 12th and 16th, respectively. SIUE freshman Jessica Levy (Des Plaines) missed the finals at 400 meters, running for a 19th-place finish in 58.75. Sawyer will compete in the finals on Saturday at 4:28 p.m. (EST). Rose will run his final at 3:30 p.m. (EST). -siue cougars- |
