RING WINS HIGH JUMP WITH PROGRAM RECORD
5/9/2025 11:27:00 PM | Men's Track and Field, Women's Track and Field
VERMILLION, S.D. — Grayson Ring caps the USD Twilight meet with a program record in high jump for South Dakota State University on Friday evening.
HEAD COACH ROD DEHAVEN
"We had a decent number of folks who really brought it today. Obviously, Grayson Ring's high jump record was incredible. Some of the performances here in Ames, in particular the 800-meter, were outstanding as well, along with Josh Becker's steeplechase performance. I think, largely, we're in a good place heading into next week. We just have to fine-tune a few things and be ready to go next weekend."
