Viking_Yearbook_90

Records set by small track team Five school records, set by three athletes, highlighted a strong year for the small PSU track and field contingent in 1990. Faced with a lack of depth and experience, the Vikings managed several strong performances against all levels of competition from NAIA to NCAA Division I. Shelley Bryson, a sophomore, broke her own school record in the 400 meter hurdles twice this season, finally settling for a 62.55 best. The time was good enough to earn Bryson a spot in the NCAA Division II National Meet in Virgina. Although she was unable to advance into the cham– pionship heat, head coach Ken Woodard said Bryson ran a strong race . Bryson also ran a 15.3-second 100-meter hurdles for a second school record, and was joined by teammate Karen Case as a two– record athlete. Case long jumped 18 feet, 1- 3 I 4 inches, breaking her own mark twice, and triple jumped 37 feet, 4-1/2 inches for another record. Wayne Harrisbroke his own record twice, ending the year with a 10.6 second 100-meter dash. Several personal bests were 126
