PRICE-SMITH TO REPRESENT USA AT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

Nine Indiana Invaders competed in the 1999 U.S. Outdoor Track & Field Championships that took place June 24-27 at the Hayward Field on the campus of the University of Oregon in Eugene.

The meet served as a qualifier for the 1999 IAAF World Championships with Connie Price-Smith (shot put) to represent the United States at the world championship meet. Price-Smith won the shot put in dramatic fashion on her final throw with a mark of 18.86m.

Other Invaders that competed in the meet and their finishing performances were: Sean Robbins (5th in long jump), Brendon Falconer (12th decathlon), Shannon Gallagher (12th in pole vault), Le'gretta Smith (6th in 400 meter hurdles heat), and Jamie Strieter (11th in javelin).

Tye Harvey (pole vault) and Steven Parker (high jump) competed but no-heighted in their events while Stephanie Dueringer qualified to compete in the 10,000 meters but was unable to compete due to injury.
