Nate Carr and Robin Ulrich go stride for stride during the 100-meter high hurdle competition at the USC/AC invite in Wells.

The Bucs finished two points out of second place, behind St. James with 103. The host Rebels dominated the meet with 205 points.

Seniors Jonathan Leitzke and Mark Bartley posted wins in their respective races.

Leitzke was clocked in 2:05.8 to take first in the 800-meter run, while Bartley circled eight laps in 10:42.2 for the best overall time in the two-mile run.

Nate Carr displayed his versatility in running and field events.

The sophomore raced to a third place finish in the 110-meter high hurdles with a time of 16.6 and third in the 300-meter intermediates with 46.0. Carr earned runnerup honors in the high jump clearing the bar with 5-10.

Carr (22.8) also anchored the 4 x 200-meter relay squad of Derek Olinger (25.3), Dan Lyke (24.9 ) and Robin Ulrich (25.3) that placed second with 1:37.3.

The senior Ulrich cleared the high jump bar at 6-0 to grab first place and place him No. 7 on the Outdoor Honor Roll. He also was in the top five in the long jump, hitting the sand at 18-8 1/4 to claim fifth place.

Ulrich’s time of 16.7 in the 110-meter highs was the fourth best time overall.

In the 4 x 200-meter relay squad that took second, Ulrich ran the third leg.

Two other relay teams were able to post times good enough to claim second-place.

The frosh foursome of Zach Tvedten, Daniel Plocker, Santos Flores, and Tyler Meyers sprinted to second place in the 4 x 100-meter relay with a 49.7.
