NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT – Junior Hakim Cunningham made it two hurdle school records in two weeks, as he placed third in the 400-meter hurdles at the Yale Springtime Invitational on Sunday. Cunningham's time of 55.60 eclipsed teammate Zach Berzal's year-old record of 56.20. Last week at Stony Brook, Cunningham broke his own 110-meter hurdle record.
Cunningham capped his busy day by leading off the winning 1,600-meter relay. He started the day as a member of the fourth-place 400-meter relay.
Several other athletes had season- or personal-bests: sophomore Stefan Morton and senior Kyle Hannafin in the 1,500-meter run; freshman Dietrich Mosel and junior Johnny Lee in the 5,000-meter run; senior captain Tyler Schwarz in the 100-meter dash.
The Red Foxes return to action on Friday at the Vassar Twilight Invitational in Poughkeepsie, followed by the MAAC Outdoor Track Championships on Saturday and Sunday at Monmouth University.
