SEATTLE, Wash.---Matt Strangio and Parker Wilkerson each notched new school records in the men's mile and men's 800 meter runs, respectively, and Laura Pellicoro took home second-place all-time in the women's mile among several outstanding individual performances from Portland's men's and women's track and field teams at the UW Invitational on Saturday.

Making his debut appearance in the event, Strangio's mile time of 3:59.19 was good for sixth-place overall on the day, and beats the previous school record of 3:59.61 set by George Duggan at the 2020 MPSF Championships. Chris Morzenti posted an impressive 4:02.02 to overtake eighth-place in Portland's all-time record books, securing 12th overall in the race.
