Gophers Bethany Hasz and Alec Basten swept the 3,000-meter titles to lead the Maroon & Gold Saturday.
IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Bethany Hasz and Alec Basten swept the 3,000-meter titles to lead the Maroon & Gold and the Gophers combined for six all-time top-10 marks and four event titles on day two at the Hawkeye B1G Invitational on Saturday. Basten and Psicihulis won events on the men's side while B. Hasz and the 4x400-meter relay team of Jayla Campbell, Janielle Josephs, Val Larson, and Abigail Schaaffe were victorious for the women.
In total, the Gophers collected six event titles and recorded 10 all-time top-10 marks at the two-day meet, which marked the Maroon & Gold's final tune-up before the Big Ten Indoor Championships later this month.
Men's Day Two Recap
The Gopher men rewrote Minnesota's all-time top-10 list in the 3,000 meters led by Basten, who ran 7:56.61 to win the meet and rank sixth in program history. Owen Hoeft ran a career-best 8:00.83 for fifth at the meet and eighth in Gophers' history while Jordan MacIntosh finished in a career-best 8:02.60 for seventh at the meet and ninth among all-time Gophers.
Psicihulis joined Basten in collecting an event title for Minnesota on the men's side as he won the premier men's 600 meters in 1:18.22. Psicihulis also joined Marquez Clerveaux, Kion Benjamin, and Collin Sieffert on the Gophers' runner-up 4x400-meter relay team (3:13.01).
Kaleb Siekmeier led the Gopher men in the field events with a third-place finish in weight throw with a mark of 20.53m (67-04.25 ft.).
Women's Day Two Recap
The Gopher women were led by Bethany Hasz's record-breaking win in the 3,000 meters on Saturday. Hasz ran a blistering 8:59.37 to improve on her own Minnesota indoor program record in the 3,000 meters by 12 seconds (9:11.46). Her time of 8:59.37 ranks first in the Big Ten and sixth in the nation so far this season.
Minnesota's 4x400-meter relay team of Campbell, Josephs, Larson, and Schaaffe ran 3:36.97 to win the meet and land fourth in program history. Josephs also finished second in the premier women's 200 meters in 24.26 seconds, good for seventh on Minnesota's all-time list.
The Gopher women also earned a runner-up finish in the distance medley relay as Anastasia Korzenowski, Lauren Hansen, Sophie Schmitz, and Tate Sweeney ran 11:35.17.
