Final Results

GOLDEN, Colo. - Seven event wins and three season-best NCAA provisional performances were featured on Saturday as Colorado School of Mines wrapped up the two-day Mines Winter Classic & Multi at Steinhauer Fieldhouse. 

ON THE TRACK
Garrett Halbrooks and Zack Raake highlighted Mines' men's day in the sprints as each ran collegiate-best times in the 60m dash. Halbrooks blazed to second place in the event in 6.92 seconds, tying for second all-time at Mines just three-hundreths off the program record, while Raake's fourth-place 6.94 was also a PR good for the #4 all-time performance at Mines. Halbrooks had also run 6.92 in prelims and Raake 6.98. In the 60m hurdles, Everett Delate continued his outstanding form this winter with another event win, running 7.95 in both prelims and finals which was just three-hundreths off his program-record time set last week.

Tim Thompson won the 800m in a quick 1:55.27, converting to a season-best 1:51.95 on the NCAA provisional list. Alberto Campa added to the wins with a 4:19.90 mile to lead an Oredigger pack that included Matthew Mettler (4:24.53, 3rd) and Joseph Pearlman (4:45.02, 11th); Campa's time makes him the fourth different Oredigger to hit an NCAA provisional performance in the mile this season.

For the women, a pair of event wins by Allison Comer and Aryelle Wright highlighted their afternoon on the track. Comer won the 400m dash by a hundreth of a second, running 1:01.60 for first, and Wright later ran a season-best 2:16.47 - the #14 performance nationally this season - to take the 800m with Miranda Manfre fifth (2:21.42) and Avary Catchings eighth (2:23.02). 

Grace Galvin topped three 60m sprinters in ninth at 7.97 seconds with Amena Nelson running one tick behind for 12th and Randi Higashi 15th in 8.25 seconds. In the mile, Lexi Herr led Mines with an eighth-place 5:25.86 ahead of Gabriela Kenly (13th, 5:41.13).
