EVANSVILLE, Ind. – The University of Evansville track & field team broke a school record six different times on Friday, and multiple personal-best performances were set, as the Purple Aces had a strong day at the Billy Hayes Invitational in Bloomington, Indiana.
The assault on the school record book began in the day's second event, as senior throwers Jaden Hayes (Huntingburg, Ind./Southridge) and Zach Dove (Princeton, Ind./Princeton Community) both broke the men's school record in the discus event. Hayes broke the mark first with a toss of 49.
