🔼 School Record. We have a new school record in the 8,000-meter! Elkana Kipruto beat the existing record by 45 seconds on Friday at the Pre-National Invitational. Kipruto finished second in the event, running it in 22:45.6, just a second shy of the winner.

🔼 Slow Down. As Wichita State bowling embarked on a new season over the weekend, Coach Holly Harris says she’s taking lessons learned from last season’s Final Four run, and is ready to see how her team responds. Among those lessons? Challenging one of her team’s top bowls to slow down.
