SALEM,
Ore. – Isaac Moog had an outstanding performance today at
the Charles Bowles Spring Break Classic hosted by Willamette University.
The freshman from Centralia won three of the four events he competed
in leading PLU to an overall impressive showing.
On the track, Moog (pictured at left) won the 400-meter dash, improving
his season best time to 50.20. Moog’s time places him 20th

the list since 2003. Off the track, Moog won both the long jump
(21-09) and the triple jump (43-00.25). Moog’s mark in the
triple jump is the fourth longest in the Northwest Conference this
season.
Other event winners include Faven Araya, who won both the women's
100-meter hurdles (15.77) and 400-meter hurdles (64.92). Amy LeBrun
finished first out of 22 runners in the 200-meter dash (26.25) while
placing second in the 100-meter dash (12.77), setting a seasonal
best. Joining Araya and LeBrun were Lynette Millard and Lakia Arceneaux
to form the winning 4x100-meter relay (50.14). On the field, Taylor
