Peterson Rewrites School Record in Mile
« on: February 06, 2022, 11:22:01 AM »
NOTRE DAME, Ind. – Headlined by Sean Peterson's school record in the men's mile run and seven personal-best performances, the Youngstown State track and field program concluded its two-day outing on Saturday afternoon at Notre Dame's Meyo Invitational.

Peterson' program record in the men's mile run comes with a time of 4:00.22 and a third-place finish in the event. The previous record (4:02.71) was held by former All-American and Penguin-standout Kurt Michaelis and was set during the 2003 indoor season, standing for nearly 19 years. With the record, Peterson now owns indoor school record marks in the 1000m and mile events. He has the program's second-quickest mark in the 800m.

Also worth noting, Peterson's mark slashes his previous personal-best by over four seconds.
