AMES, Iowa - Performances by senior Aisha Stringer and sophomore Aldwyn Sappleton highlighted the day for the OU track and field teams in the second day of the ISU Track and Field Classic.
Stringer cut nearly four seconds off her previous season best to finish third in the 800 with a 2:08.81. Sappleton, who ran the 800 for just the second time this season, cut more than a second off his previous 800 time, finishing sixth with a 1:49.21. Both times were NCAA provisional qualifying marks.
Freshman DaBryan Blanton made his season debut on the track team, finishing third in the 60 with a time of 6.75, just .01 off the school record. Blanton was a redshirt on the Sooner football team last fall. Senior L'eron George finished fifth with a season best 6.81.
Other top 10 finishes for the Sooners today included Tiffany Davis, who was second in the 60-meter hurdles; Kim Thomas, second in the 600-yard run; Jimyria Hicks, third in the 60-meter dash; Lucretia Rimmer, fifth in the triple jump with a season best 39-8; the women's 1600-meter relay which finished sixth; Kelsey Moore, who was ninth in the high jump; Robert Smith, who was 10th in the triple jump.
