Career bests good sign for Indiana invitational

Two teams failed to make the trip Friday to Bloomington for the open men's indoor track meet, but that did not stop the Hoosiers from setting six career bests.\nThe University of Louisville and Eastern Kentucky University did not make it because of bad weather. IU and University of Indianapolis proceeded without them.\n Pole vault was a popular event for scoring career bests as three Hoosiers topped their previous highest marks. Senior Kris Mack won the event as an unattached athlete because he has eligibility for the outdoor season. \nJunior Ian Curry also surpassed his career best in a second place effort, and freshmen Ryker Jones and David Mahlan both scored bests as well.\nJunior Wasyl Fedoriw shattered his career best by a foot on his way to a victory in the weight throw. Senior Brian Bowman saw his career best in the shot put improve Friday.\nSophomore Matt Harris continued his streak of topping his career bests in each meet. He won the 60-meter hurdles with a career best and also exceeded his best in the 200-meter dash.\nUnattached athlete and freshman Rico Lloyd won the high jump and the 60-meter dash, while placing second in the long jump and third in the 200-meter.
