CSP wrapped up 26 top-10 finishes in their final tune-up at their home track

ST. PAUL, Minn. – The Concordia Golden Bears track and field teams completed their second of three competitions at the home track on Wednesday night at the Bear Cat Twlight, co-hosted by St. Thomas. CSP wrapped up 26 top-10 finishes, including nine in the top-5.
 
The men's side collected 14 finishes in the top-10 and three in the top-5 while the women grabbed 12 in the top-10 and six in the top-5 for a fairly even split.
 
One of those top-5 results on the men's side came from Caleb Troe in the 5000m. Troe chopped off almost nine seconds from his own school record as he claimed fifth with a time of 15:08.57.
 
Fellow distance runner Benjamin Allen gave the men their best finish of the day as he took home third in the 800 meter run. His time of 1:54.94 was just over five seconds behind the leader of the event.

Highlighting the women's side was a pair of athletes finishing third in their respective events. Erika Shady came within 0.10 seconds of taking the top spot in the 100 meter finals as she registered in with a time of 12.66. That results was matched by Hannah Gustafson in the shot put, who cleared 42'2.75" in the event.
