Live From New York
January 29, 2010
What we know so far from the Millrose Games at Madison Square Garden, which is showing live on ESPN2:
• The Penn men finished fifth in the college 4×400-meter relay, struggling a bit on the sharp turns on the short course. The Quakers finished in 3:29.47, just about 10 seconds behind Mississippi State (3:19.44).
• The Cornell men took fourth in the 4×800-meter relay in 7:39.81. The Virginia Cavaliers were the victors, finishing in 7:32.49.
• Dartmouth graduate Adam Nelson took third in the shot put in 67-3 1/2. He fouled on three of his four attempts, including a spectacular fall on his opening throw. Christian Cantwell won the event with a best toss of 72-0 1/4.
• Harvard graduate Becky Christensen was tied for third in the high jump with a clearance of 5-8 3/4 while champion Sheree Francis of Jamaica eclipsed the bar at 6-2.
