AZUSA, Calif. — Numerous lifetime-bests once again headlined the action on the west coast for Arkansas, capping day three at the Bryan Clay Invitational and day one at the Michael Johnson Invitational.
Two of the three 800-meters performances on Friday night were lifetime-bests as Kieran Taylor, and Chase Pareti sprinted to times of 1:48.06 and 1:50.04, respectively, finishing sixth and 23rd.
Moving up to the 1,500-meters, there were six Razorbacks on the track for Arkansas. Cameron Griffith led the group running a lifetime-best of 3:39.86 for a 10th-place finish that falls just outside the Arkansas all-time top-10 list.
