ADRIAN, Mich. – Justin Meredith won the 200 meters and he was part of the winning 4x100 relay as Albion College athletes got their first look at how their Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association rivals are competing in outdoor track & field during the league jamboree meet.

Meredith sprinted to a time of 22.37 seconds in the 200, finishing a tenth of a second ahead of Hope's Boone Marois. Albion's Jeremy Shephard was fourth and Justin Ware finished ninth in the event.

Meredith was the runner-up to Marois in the 100. Meredith reached the finish in 11.08 seconds, four-hundredths of a second behind.

Meredith was joined by Ware, Shephard and Sean Thomas on the relay. Head Coach Lance Coleman said the Britons are great handoffs all the way around as they achieved a winning time of 43.49 seconds. The Britons won the race by a half second over Hope.

Alex Goricki scored in a number of events, finishing second in the 400 hurdles, third in the 110 hurdles, and fourth in the triple jump.

Coleman was also pleased with the progress Ryan Watson is making in the 1,500 meters. He finished sixth in 4:11.73.

In the field events, Albion received points from Josh Lowe (winning the long jump and finishing second in the triple jump and sixth in the high jump), Chris Ogston (third in the hammer throw), Nick Bertoia (fourth in the javelin) and Dan Fick (seventh in the long jump, eighth in the triple jump, and ninth in the javelin).

Albion will compete in an April 18 invitational meet at Olivet College.
