Track and Field
Personal records were broken at the Nike Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays in Austin on Saturday.
Junior Ronnie Baker recorded a time of 10.02 in his first 100-meter dash of the season. His time was a personal best and places him at No. 4 all-time at TCU.
Baker ran against an Olympic medalist, the Japanese national record holder, and TCU’s own Charles Silmon, who clocked in at 9.91 in the race, said Darryl Anderson, director of track and field.
“That was better than running against college guys because he got great experience and great exposure running in that race,” Anderson said.
Also that day, the men’s 4×100 relay finished in third place at 39.15 seconds, falling just .24 seconds behind first-place. The relay team is ranked first in the Big 12 and third in the country. They have already surpassed last year’s best of 39.52 seconds.
