DES MOINES, Iowa - OU junior Aisha Stringer posted a career best 2:09.69 to finish third in the women's 800-meter run Friday at the 93rd annual Drake Relays. The time improved her season and career best mark, set just last weekend, by nearly a second.
Stringer's finish was just one of the highlights for the Sooner track and field teams during OU's second day in Des Moines. In the women's shot put, freshman Amanda Warehime finished sixth with a throw of 46-5.5.
In preliminary action, junior Tiffany Davis advanced to the final in the 100-meter hurdles with the seventh fastest qualifying time. Her mark of 14.07 was good for second place in her heat. The men's 1600-meter relay finished first in its heat with a 3:10.12 and will take the fifth fastest qualifying time into the final on Saturday.
The prelim news wasn't as good for the women's 400-meter relay, the women's 1600-meter relay and L'eron George in the 100-meter dash. All failed to advance to the final.
On Saturday, the Sooners are scheduled to have Leslie Dunlap and Michael Westlund competing in the pole vault; Sand Swaby competing in the women's high jump; Aldwyn Sappleton competing in the men's 800; the men's and women's sprint medley relays and the women's shuttle hurdle relay as well as Friday's two qualifiers.
