KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Day one of the Tennessee Relays was a quick one. Just four Hoosiers entered the competition. The morning wave saw the men's and women's multi events, followed by the hammer throw in the afternoon and the 10,000m run in the evening.
After five events scored in the men's decathlon, Andrew Huber is just 11 points out of first place. He started the morning with a personal best time of 11.08 in the 100m dash, securing 843 points. In the long jump he hit a mark of 6.54m (21-5.5) to score 707 points. The third event, the shot put, scored 580 points for Huber with a mark of 11.56m (37-11.25). In the high jump, Huber scored 627 points with a mark of 1.80m (5-10.75). Finally, Andrew sprinted a lap around the track in 50.94, scoring 772 points in the 400m dash.
Through day one Huber has netted 3,529 points, placing him in second place. He trails Florida State's Dante Newberg. Tomorrow's slate will begin with the 110m hurdles at approximately 10:00 a.m. EST. The remaining events are the discus throw, the pole vault, the javelin and the 1,500m run.
Andrew Miller finished fifth in the men's hammer throw. His first throw was good enough to advance him to the finals. He fouled off his next three throws before uncorking his best throw of the day, 59.46m (195-1), on his fifth throw of the evening.
Nakel McClinton captured fourth place in the women's hammer throw. Her best mark of the day came on a throw of 58.09m (190-7). Teammate Nycia Ford took 11th in the event with a toss of 50.96m (167-2).
Following the decathlon, the first event with Hoosier representation tomorrow afternoon will be at 2:45 p.m. with the women's 400m hurdles. The field events will kick off at 3:00 p.m. with both the men's and women's long jump competition.
