The Case Western Reserve University men's distance medley relay and junior mid-distance runner Joe Jaster each set new school records for the Spartan track and field team at the Tufts Last Chance National Qualifier Meet on Saturday at the Gantcher Center in Medford, Massachusetts.
Jaster, who placed first, finished the 3000-meter run in 8:16.52, easily besting the CWRU record of 8:24.90 set by junior teammate Jack Begley earlier this season at the All-Ohio Championships. In that race, Begley broke Jaster's previous record of 8:30.18.
The distance medley relay, consisting of junior mid-distance runner Parker Straight, first-year sprinter Nicolas Lende, junior mid-distance runner Will Dehmler, and senior mid-distance runner Logan Singer, finished in 10:08.
