TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Senior All-American David Timlin had a fantastic showing in the men's 1500-meter run at the ISU Twilight, Indiana State's meet that was announced just Thursday to replace the cancelled Billy Hayes Invite scheduled for Friday.
 
Timlin ran an incredible time of 3:42.93 to pick up a victory and set the new facility record at the Gibson Track & Field Complex. His new time is 41st in the NCAA, 16th in the East, and best in the Valley.
 
"We were really glad to host the meet, I think it turned out to be an advantage for us," said ISU head coach Angela Martin. "The weather was great, a little windy, but our kids stepped up and what a great way to end the day with having David run such a great race to win it."
 
In the women's 400-meter hurdles, Alethia Marrero was also victorious with a season-best time of 59.50. Her time moves her to 35th in the East Region and first in the MVC.
 
Senior hurdler Marcus Neely had another solid showing in the men's 110-meter hurdles with a second place finish and a time of 13.78, which is just off of his personal-best time of 13.77. His time of 13.77 from last weekend is 21st in the NCAA, 11th in the East and first in the Valley.
 
Devyn Mikell had a season-best performance in the long jump, winning with an impressive mark of 7.34m (24-01.00). His new mark is now fifth in the Valley this season.
 
Junior Hunter Schuman recorded a new personal-best on the way to the victory in the men's hammer throw with a mark of 54.15m (177-08). His mark pushed him to eighth in the MVC.
 
Schuman was also the top collegiate finisher in the men's shot put, throwing a new personal best 16.91m (55-05.75) to finish behind unattached former NCAA All-American Chukwuebuka Enekwechi of Purdue (20.38m/66-10.50).
 
There were multiple solid performances in the field from both the men's and women's teams.
 
Jaime Murtagh continued his winning ways with a victory in the men's high jump with a mark of 2.09m (6-10.25). Junior Trey Kennedy also claimed a victory in the men's pole vault with a mark of 4.79m (15-08.50). On the women's side, Kaitlyn Moricz won the women's pole vault with a mark of 3.69m (12-01.25).
