OU Hosts Fourth Annual J.D. Martin Invitational

McMillian, Dunlap Win Events at UNT Twilight

April 23, 2004 | Track and Field

DENTON, Texas A pair of Sooners came home from the UNT Twilight Invitational with victories in the final regular season competition of the 2004 outdoor track and field season late Thursday night.

Leslie Dunlap recorded a season best of 12-11.50 to win the women's pole vault while freshman Jon McMillian cleared 7-2.50 to win the men's high jump. McMillian's effort ranks as the third best in school history and is a career/season best for the Choctaw freshman by two inches. Both had already qualified for the NCAA Midwest Regional meet but the marks in the UNT meet are improvements of previous regional qualifying marks.

Three Sooners cleared 5-4.25 in the women's high jump with Veronica Clayborne and Myria Houlihan tying for sixth and Kelsey Moore finishing 10th. In the women's pole vault, Jennifer Plank and Lindsey Bourne tied for seventh with an 11-5.75.

Katie Blue finished fifth in the shot put with a 40-5.5 and was fifth in the discus with a 137-0. Renea' Burns finished third in the javelin with a 132-5.

Scott Martin finished second in the pole vault with a 17-075 and Cale Drumwright was second in the javelin with a 172-0. Kris Glenn finished sixth in the high jump with a 6-6.75.

Several Sooners will head to the Golden Hurricane Invitational Saturday in a final tuneup before the eighth annual Big 12 Outdoor Track and Field Championships scheduled to start Thursday at the John Jacobs Field on the OU campus.
