EDINBURG – Dawne Hill broke her own school record in the hammer throw, while Gonzalo Gonzalez and Shari Galvin each won two events to lead the way for the University of Texas-Pan American Track and Field team at the Spring Fever Open, held Sunday morning at the UTPA Track and Field Stadium.

Hill, a senior from McAllen, broke her old school record in the hammer throw by more than a foot with a toss of 148-9 ½ in her fourth attempt of the day.  The distance was good enough for Hill to place second in the hammer.  Her previous record was 147-6, set last year at the UT-Arlington Open.

Gonzalez, a senior from La Joya rolled past the competition in both the shot put and the discus.  He won the shot put with a toss of 50-3, 12 feet ahead of the second place finisher.  He followed that up by throwing the discus 148-5 ½, also 12 feet ahead of the second place finisher.  Gonzalez recently set the UTPA record for the indoor shot put with a toss of 50-11.

Galvin, a sophomore from McAllen, ran away from the competition in the 200 and 400-meter sprints.  She edged teammate Sabina Lozano in the 200 meter, running a 26.13 to Lozano’s 27.20.  In the 400 meter, she again edged out Lozano, running a 59.12 to Lozano’s 63.49.  Galvin’s sister Jamika won the 100-meter dash with a 13.56.

Other strong performances from the Broncs on Sunday included Perla Rios winning the women’s 5,000 meter with a time of 19:32.3.  Teammate Sandy Guerrero took second in the event.  Laura Cruz and Rosie Rosales finished 1-2 in the women’s high jump.  Laquanta Bivens was second in the women’s discus with a toss of 120-2.  David Ozuna won the men’s 400-meter intermediate hurdles with a time of 58.62 to edge out Minnesota Mankato’s Mead Maney, who was just .51 seconds back.  Clayton Stuart won the pole vault with a height of 13-0.  Eugene Asare-Mensah leapt to victory in the triple jump with a distance of 44-7.

The Broncs will host their second track and field meet of the spring, the Angela Proctor Invitational next Saturday, March 18, 2000, at the UTPA Track and Field Stadium.
