Freshman sprinter Jordan Ware and thrower Roury McCloyen have highlighted the Bulldogs' outdoor season. Ware, the reigning SEC Men's Runner of The Week, opened the outdoor season last weekend at the Hurricane Invitational winning first place in the 200m with a nation's-best time of 20.25. He earned fourth place overall and second place among collegiate runners in the 100m with the second-best collegiate time of 10.16.
Â
McCloyen won first place in both the discus and shot put. He earned his third school record after breaking the freshman discus record with a distance of 53.72m (173-3.0). That mark is good for fourth on State's all-time top-five list.
Â
Thrower Jhordyn Stallworth broke her own school record in the shot put with a distance of 16.41m (53-10.25). She currently holds the indoor, outdoor and freshman school records in the shot put.
