Great finishes from Cyclones

The men’s 800m run saw Frank Hayes take the win as he ran a season-best time of 1:48.28. Not only did he run a season best but he also made it to number five in ISU indoor history. 

One of the biggest wins from the Cyclones came in the women’s 4×400 relay as the team of Zakiyah Amos, Kaylyn Hall, Katrina Vlahovic and Bria Barnes took first place. Their time of 3:40.09 is fourth best in ISU history as well as the fastest 4×400 since 2014.
