Complete Results at Penn State | Complete Results at Mount Union

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- In preparation for next week's Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) Indoor Championships, the Allegheny College men's track and field team sent athletes to two meets on Friday.

Several Gators traveled to University Park for the Penn State Tune-Up, while three track athletes ran at the University of Mount Union Tune-Up. In total, Allegheny earned six personal records, five of which came at Penn State.

Sophomore jumper Cozmo Gallegos (Chino, Calif./Chino) was responsible for two PRs. Gallegos was fifth out of 12 finishers and the second-best Division III competitor in the long jump, reaching 6.52 meters on his final attempt. In the triple jump, he reached 12.74 meters, which ranks as the fourth-best mark in the conference this season.

Sophomore Andre Anderson (Chapel Hill, N.C./East Chapel Hill) collected two top-10 finishes in the throwing events. He was seventh in the weight throw at 14.90 meters and eighth in the shot put at 13.35 meters.

On the track, Carter Betz (Pittsburgh, Pa./Brentwood), VJ Praylor (Rochester, N.Y./Vertus Charter), and Tyler Biss (Beaver, Pa./Beaver) all earned PRs in the 60-meter dash, 400-meter dash, and one-mile run, respectively. However, junior Austin Stewart (Pittsburgh, Pa./Serra Catholic) had the best performance on the team at PSU, placing seventh in the 400-meter dash with an indoor PR of 50.01 seconds.

At Mount Union, senior Caleb Freeman (Killingworth, Conn./Haddam-Killingworth) took fourth in the 3,000-meter run at 9:27.85. He was one of two Gators in the race, as classmate Patrick Sharp (Brighton, N.Y./Brighton) placed eighth at 10:24.15.
