WASHINGTON – Select members of the Georgetown University men's track & field team will travel to Azusa, California on Thursday for the Bryan Clay Invitational, hosted by Azusa Pacific University. All-American
Joe White (Clifton, N.J. / DePaul Catholic) will compete in the Mt. SAC Relays just 40 miles south in Torrance, California. The action in Azusa begins on Thursday evening with the men's 5,000-meter run. White will be the lone Georgetown runner in the men's 800-meter run, which is set to commence at 2:20 p.m. on Saturday.
In the 5,000-meter run, juniors
Matthew Bouthillette (North Providence, R.I. / La Salle Academy) and
Jack Van Scoter (Pasadena, Calif. / Flintridge Prep) will compete in two separate heats against a stacked field, which includes runners from No. 5 BYU, No. 19 Wisconsin and No. 24 Arkansas, among others. Both Hoyas last competed in the Sam Howell Invite, hosted by Princeton, two weeks ago and posted top-15 finishes in the men's 1,500-meter run.
All-Americans
Spencer Brown (Wilton, Conn. / Wilton),
Jack Salisbury (Rumford, R.I. / La Salle Academy) and
Nick Wareham (Woodbury, Minn. / Woodbury) will take to the track for the men's 1,500-meter run in three different heats on Friday night. Brown recorded his first victory of the 2019 outdoor season in the men's 800-meter run last weekend at the George Mason Spring Invitational. Both Salisbury and Wareham competed in the 1,500-meter run at Princeton with Salisbury coming across the line first in a time of 3:45.43 while Wareham finished fourth.
White is looking to build off of his first-place finish in the men's 400-meter dash last weekend as he competes in the 800-meter run on Saturday afternoon.
The Blue & Gray will be back in action on Thursday, April 25 as the squad travels to Philadelphia for the prestigious Penn Relays, hosted by Penn.
