FINAL RESULTS
WOOSTER, Ohio – After taking last weekend off because of nasty weather coming through the Ohio area, both Otterbein track and field programs got themselves back into competition with a two-day Wooster Invitational.
The Cardinals chalked up plenty of positive results as spring season turns the corner into April, beginning Friday evening and carrying well into Saturday's slate. See below for many of the notable efforts:
MEN:
- Cwinn Febus, back for a sixth year of competition coming through the wild pandemic, won the 110 hurdles in 15.02 and then took runner-up in the straight 100 at a smooth 11.14 seconds.
- Nick Agerter (pole vault) and Mike Rennette (javelin) both took second place in their events. Agerter, who just missed the programs top-1-0 list, cleared 14-6 while Rennette had a best toss of 146-7.
- Also in the field, Jayvaun Lane took fourth in the long jump while Logan Price took fourth in the hammer with a PR of 140-3.
