Penn Sets Program Best in 1500m as Cards Conclude California Split
April 14, 2024 | Track & Field
The senior clocked a time of 4:14.66 to best the previous school record by nearly five seconds.
Rylee Penn set a new program record in the women's 1500m as the University of Louisville track & field teams completed their split weekend between the Bryan Clay Invitational and Beach Invitational.
In her first outdoor action in a Louisville uniform, the senior clocked a time of 4:14.66 to finish inside the top-30 individual finishers at Bryan Clay while lowering the previous school record of 4:19.10 set in 2009 by Tarah McKay by nearly five seconds.
The Cardinals also saw Ian Kibiwot record the third-fastest performance in program history in the men's 5000m with a time of 13:49.23, while Jack Stansell recorded a personal-best mark of 14:24.30 in the event.
At the Beach Invitational, Jayden Ulrich finished as the runner-up in the women's discus throw with a mark of 58.14m (190-9), two days after setting a new program-best and NCAA lead in the event at the Pacific Coast Invitational. In three appearances in the event for the Cardinals, Ulrich has now recorded the three farthest tosses in school history.
Jeremiah Willis also made the most of his second taste of action this weekend, finishing third overall in the men's long jump after posting a wind-aided final mark of 7.78m (25-6.25), his season-best in the event.
In the men's triple jump, Roman Kuleshov recorded his own season-best with a wind-aided leap of 15.63m (51-3.5), good for a fourth-place individual finish.
The Cardinals are slated to return to action next weekend when the Jim Green Invitational takes place from Apr. 19-20 in Lexington, Ky. at the University of Kentucky.
