Track & Field Heads To Stanford After Week Of Rest

By: Cal Athletics

BERKELEY, Calif. – After a weekend off, the California track & field team returns to competition on Friday and Saturday at the Cardinal Classic. The Bears will make the trip across the Bay for the two-day meet at Cobb Track and Angell Field.

The Bears are coming off the Big Meet where they took on Stanford in a dual meet at Edwards Stadium. Cal fell on both the men's and women's sides, but still posted some quality marks throughout the competition.

Camryn Rogers set a school record and Big Meet record as she dominated the hammer throw competition. The freshman reset the school mark at 214-2 and improved her Canadian U20 record with a dynamic third throw of the competition.

Silviu Bocancea moved up the school's all-time top 10 list in the hammer as he moved into seventh while Amarie Bremel took sole possession of the tenth spot on the women's discus list. Emma DeSilva set a Sri Lankan national discus record with her throw of 162-11 at the Big Meet. Freshman Deshae Wise also posted a time that earned her a spot on the record book as she finished the 100m hurdles in 13.94 to tie for eighth in school history.

Annie Boos set the freshman record in the 3000m steeplechase with a time of 10:43.62. She set the record while running in a three-person field and will return for her second race in the competition at Stanford.

The distance races are scheduled to feature some top competitors as teams look to set marks before getting into championship season. Another freshman, Brie Oakley will look to lay down a great time in the 5000m as she will be joined by Marissa Dobry in the competition. Oakley currently has the 38^th-best time in the country, but will look to better on Friday.

The Bears will also look towards the 800m dash featuring some of the top middle distance runners. The men's side will feature Garrett Corcoran, John Hogan, Benjamin Micallef and Nikolaus Moore while the women's race will see Rebecca Croft, Katherine Haysbert and Nuria Tio Peig toe the line.
