Three Jayhawks that impressed on the field:
1. Egor Agafonov — As expected, Agafonov won his third-straight hammer-throw competition this season. His winning toss of 227-05 feet was the fourth farthest throw in the nation this year. That throw was also the second farthest winning toss in Kansas Relays history.
2. Eric Babb — The senior won the men’s long jump with a leap of 25-09.25. His jump was a career record. It was his first victory of the outdoor season.
3. Zlata Tarasova — She was seeded second coming into the hammer throw but pulled out the victory with a toss of 203-02. That throw was just off the best toss in her career, 204-05.
Three Jayhawks that impressed on the track:
1. Colby Wissel — The cross country All-American finished second in the men’s invitational 1,500 meters in 3:47.08. This was the first time Wissel had run the 1,500 this outdoor season. It is also his best individual finish at the Kansas Relays.
2. Victoria Howard — The sophomore won the women’s 100 meters in a career-best 11.58 seconds. Howard’s time ranks 10th in the NCAA Midwest region.
3. Patrick McGowan — The junior finished second in the men’s 3,000 meter steeplechase in a time of 9:33. The time is his best of the season in his second outdoor race this year.
