EUGENE, Ore. – Indiana State freshman Ryan York closed his debut season in the Blue and White Wednesday evening, finishing ninth in the 3000m steeplechase at the USATF U20 Championships at Hayward Field.

York ran a time of 9:27.53, with most of his splits coming in the 70-75 second range. He became the first Sycamore distance runner to compete at a USATF Championship in Brad Butler's tenure overseeing the distance crew.

Wednesday's performance capped a season which saw York quickly break into Indiana State's scoring crop on the distance side.
