UW OPEN: Painter Posts 2nd-Best 3,000 in Bruin History in Washington Indoor Open

SEATTLE, Wash. ? Emily Painter, a newcomer to the George Fox University track and field program, posted the second-best indoor time in Bruin history in the women?s 3,000 meter run with a 10:18.11, highlighting efforts by a small sampling of Bruins in the University of Washington Open indoor meet Sunday here at the Dempsey Indoor Arena.

Painter, a sophomore transfer from Concordia University-Portland?s powerful NAIA program, was 16th in her section of the 3,000.? Her mark is second in school history only to All-American Jill Beals? school record of 10:02.64 in 1991.

The only other Bruin woman to compete Sunday was Courtney Hochstetler, who was 15th in her section of the 3,000 with an 11:15.10.

Three George Fox men took part in the day?s events.? Kody Tarbell posted a personal best when he came in 18th in his section of the 3,000 meter run with a 9:13.61.? Matt Wood was first in his group in the 400 meter dash with a 52.52, and Kyle Dreibelbis was 12th in his section in the mile run with a 4:33.56, but neither were personal records.
