Last weekend, Wyoming distance runners participated in the Stanford Invite in Stanford, Calif., and two Cowboys came home with a school record. Junior Ryker Holtzen broke the 3,000-meter Steeplechase record with a time of 8:35.70 for fifth place overall at the meet. Junior Jacob White broke the school 5,000-meter record with his time of 13:37.77, a personal best by nearly 10 seconds.
On the women’s side, senior Abigail Whitman took first in her section of the 3,0000-meter Steeplechase with a personal-best time of 10:24.48. This time moved her to No. 4 in program history. Senior Kylie Simshauser moved to No. 3 in the 5,000-meter school record book with a time of 16:18.26 while graduate Marina Trave Ferrer finished the 10,000 meters with a time of 34:24.27, good for No. 4 in program history.
