BOSTON - The Boston University men's track and field team competed at the John Thomas Terrier Classic at the TTC on Friday with graduate student Foster Malleck leading the Terriers with a Top-10 program mark in the 3,000m.

Top-10 Terrier

Malleck ran in the first open heat of the 3,000m, finishing in 7:56.78. His time is the fourth-fastest in BU history and helped him take fifth at the meet.

Top Performers

Senior Dakota Jackson took second in the 60m dash with a time of 6.83.
Sophomore Liam Gair placed fifth in the 500m, running 1:04.45.
Freshman Karsen Vesty led BU in the mile with a time of 4:07.51.

Junior Sam Roszak jumped 6.77m (22' 2.5") in the long jump to place fifth in the meet. That ties his personal best mark indoor.

NCAA Roundup

South Carolina's Anass Essayi ran the 8th fastest 3,00m time in NCAA Division I history at 7:39.11. He was previously 10th on the list.
Northern Arizona's Colin Sahlamn ran the 10th fastest mile time in NCAA Division I history at 3:53.17.

Eyes on Paris

The 5,000m hoped to be an event for Olympic hopefuls, and it proved to be just that.
Eleven men hit the Olympic qualifying standard which is 13:05 or below.
Of those eleven, five finished in under 13 minutes which is the most men to run sub-13 at a single indoor track meet.
