Denham's School Record, Strong Sprints Highlight Thursday Action
By: Ball State Athletics
RALEIGH, N.C. - Abby Denham put her name atop the Ball State track & field record books and the Cardinals turned in some strong sprints Thursday in the first day of the Raleigh Relays, hosted by North Carolina State.
Denham, a senior from Switz City, Indiana, threw the javelin a school-record 142'9" (43.1) Thursday to set a school record. She previously stood second on the school's list. She broke the record set in 1982 with the old javelin that had a different weight distribution.
"Abby was awesome, it was really good for her," head coach Brian Etelman said. "She had the biggest layoff from her event and that's great for her to get that done in March."
