ASHLAND, Ohio – The Slippery Rock University men's track and field team saw three NCAA Division II provisional qualifying performances Saturday at the Ashland Alumni Invitational.

The Rock was led by a trio of outstanding performances from its 800-meter runners, led by Kevin Jewel. Jewel won the event with a provisional qualifier of 1:52.00. He was followed in fourth-place by Phil Rector in a time of 1:53.02, just off the provisional qualifier of 1:53.00. Jason Jamieson placed fifth, narrowly missing the provisional mark with a time of 1:54.08

The throwers also shined at the Ashland meet, led by Chris Warning and Joel Peters.

Warning placed fourth in the discus throw with a season-best mark of 51.19 meters, improving on his NCAA provisional mark.

Peters finished fifth in the hammer throw with a personal best of 54.58 meters, also an NCAA provisional qualifier.

The Rock men picked up a win in the 1,500-meter run when Ethan Isoldi crossed the line first, finishing in 4:02.58. He was followed in second by Dylan Klein in a time of 4:03.17.

James Sims led the sprinters with a fourth-place finish in the 400-meter dash, posting a season-best time of 48.87 seconds.
