GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Weather was the story of the day as Cornerstone competed in day two of the Davenport Outdoor Meet. Wind and rain caused slower times across the board for athletes from every school, but that did not stop some Golden Eagles from solidifying their place in the CU all-time outdoor record books or earning personal records. "Despite the weather, our athletes competed hard in all their events," said Head Coach Andy Wright. "We were able to fine tune some things as we head into championship month."

Men's Results:
In the 400m, David Dwumfour-Poku improved his PR with a time of 49.72. That keeps him at 7th place in the CU outdoor record books.

In the 100m, Seth Stoltz was the top finisher for CU, finishing in 5th place with a time of 11.18.

The Golden Eagles finished 3-6 in the 200m, with Jadyn Courtney placing 3rd, Seth Stoltz taking 4th, Ross Hunter coming in at 5th, and David Dwumfour-Poku finishing in sixth.

In the 1500m, two Golden Eagles finished in the top three as Nate Vruggink crossed the line in 1st at 4:00.24, while Grant Gayan took 3rd 4:01.33.

Women's Results:
Braely Herrema set an outdoor PR in the high jump when she soared1.62 meters. Herrema just missed entering the CU record books in 10th place by 1cm.

Finishing strong was Halle Schnyders in the 100m, as she placed 2nd in the field, running a 12.90 despite the wind.

In the 400m, Sara Genzink took 5th place, while Kendra Montague finished in 9th while setting a PR with a time of 1:04.36.

In the 400m hurdles, Faith Kurtz led CU with a time of 1:10.30 while taking 3rd place. Chelsee Martino was close behind in 4th running a 1:10.65.
