Hooten rewrites 60m hurdles program record at Rod McCravy Memorial

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Senior Zander Hooten established a new men's indoor program record in the 60m hurdles as Bellarmine University track and field competed Friday and Saturday in the University of Kentucky-hosted Rod McCravy Memorial at the Norton Healthcare Sports & Learning Center.

Hooten actually posted two times at the meet that bested his previous program record of 8.06 in the 60m hurdles at the 2024 ASUN Championship. His 7.99 in the semifinals will stand as the new highwater mark. He also recorded an 8.04 in the finals while placing fourth.

Bellarmine competed with a partial squad. Freshman Dylan Forster placed in the upper half of the men's shot put at 13th (15.26m).

The men's 4x400 relay team of sophomore Grant King, freshman Tucker Smith, senior Zac Hutslar and senior Jackson Gordon notably threatened the program record, with their 3:16.54 not far off from the 3:14.91 benchmark.

Bellarmine will host its next two meets at Norton SLC, starting with Friday's Bellarmine Open.
