MAJORS COMPETE AT UALR

LITTLE ROCK, AR- The Majors traveled to Arkansas this weekend to compete in the Arkansas-Little Rock Invitational. 

The Majors competed well against some stiff competition. In the sprints, Kenny Holloway and Chucky Hayden both put up strong times of 11.46 and 11.57 seconds, respectfully. Those times earned Holloway a 18th place finish while Hayden finished 21st. The two would also run well in the 400 with Hayden finishing 21st again with a time of 51.97 seconds while Holloway was 23rd and 52.16 in a 35-runner field. 

In middle distance, Millsaps placed 8th-10th in the 800 meters. Travis Hebeler led the trio of Majors with a time of 2:03.92, besting Ken Newburger who finished ninth and Ben Parva who was 10th. It would be the senior Parva who edged Newburger in the 1500 meters on Saturday. Parva finished sixth with a time of 4:13.87, nearly three full seconds ahead of Newburger who was seventh. Jared Allen continued his hot streak in the 3000 meter steeplechase, winning the event again this week while posting a time of 10:09.09, besting the competition by 10 seconds. 

In the field, Dallas Prater continued his strong spring with a second-place finish in the high jump. Prater cleared six feet, four and three-quarter inches to earn second-place marks. Prater then finished fifth in the triple jump, casting a leap of 42 feet two and a quarter inches. 

In throws, Clayton Killebrew tossed to a sixth-place finish in discus. The sophomore tossed 34.18 meters for six-place. Majors' coach Roger Bynum finished second as an unattached thrower with a mark of 39.55 meters. Killebrew won the hammer toss, launching 44.23 meters, three meters longer than anyone else at the meet. Jonah Zahller won the javelin on Saturday, firing a mark of 46.34 meters, over four meters better than anyone else. 

The Majors stay close to home next weekend, competing in the annual Choctaw Open next Saturday.
