Lowry Makes History at MVC Outdoor Championship

CARBONDALE, Ill. – The University of Evansville track and field team completed action of day one of the Missouri Valley Conference Outdoor Championship, hosted by Southern Illinois.

Anna Lowry made history once again, taking home the 10,000-meter championship, which marks the first outdoor title for the Purple Aces in program history. Lowry made a move around two Loyola runners halfway through the race to earn the conference championship. Lowry finished the 10K in 34:46.70, which was 0.56 seconds ahead of the next runner.

Justus Donaldson broke the program record and captured second place in the javelin throw.
