UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Last year, the men's 4x100-meter relay team set the No.2 all-time school time in that event a total of six times.
This year, the 4x100-meter relay that ran last weekend clenched the No. 3 all-time school time with a time of 39.69 seconds. With members including senior Xavier Smith, junior Anton Porter, freshman Terrance Laird and senior Malik Moffett, the relay improved upon its season opener of 39.77.
The relay is hoping that this No. 3 ranked time will only improve from here. Members of the group say that clean handoffs at exchange zones are the main focus as they continue to prepare to run faster times throughout the season.
