Several members of the University of Iowa men’s and women’s track team competed in the 10th Annual Tom Botts Invitational this weekend hosted by Missouri. Schools from both the Big Ten and the Big 12 were represented, as well as several other schools from around the region.
Three Hawkeye men took first in their respective field events. Sophomore Shane Maier won the shot put with a toss of 59-10.25. Freshman John Hickey took second place with a throw of 56-10.75; both Maier and Hickey’s marks were NCAA regional qualifying standards. Senior Tim Brodersen also won the discus throw with a regional qualifying throw of 180-07. Sophomore Kale Katt took first place in the javelin with a throw of 190-02.
The Iowa women had several top three finishers in the meet. Sophomore Meghan Armstrong was third in the 800 meters (2:10.15), sophomore Jessica Schmidt took bronze in the 3000-meter steeplechase (11:23.70), redshirt freshman Holly Joens was third in the discus (119-05), and junior Erin O’Hern took third in the hammer throw (156-02).
