ALLENDALE, MI – A handful of Wright State track and field distance runners competed at the second day of the GVSU Big Meet on Saturday, a meet that featured more than 3,000 athletes in 3,500 entries over the two days of action.

The Raiders, who tallied five finishes inside the Top 15, all coming in the 5,000m run across five separate runnings, saw five athletes compete on Saturday in two events.
Â
Evan McPherson clocked a 4:20.04 time to finish 14th in the men's mile, while the distance medley relay team of Patrick Statzer, Aiden Clendenin, Gavin Hutchinson and Emmitt Slabach were 17th in that event with their 10:09.51 time.
