Olivet College’s Tyler and Weaver run at GVSU Second to Last Chance Meet

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Olivet College senior Trevor Tyler (Roscommon) and freshman Jalen Weaver (Albion) ran today at the Grand Valley State University Second to Last Chance Meet.

Tyler went to the meet, with the intent of running faster in the 400-meter dash and improving on his placement in the NCAA Division III rankings. Unfortunately, he was fourth with a time of 48.66 seconds, which was more than a half-second slower than his best time of the season.

Weaver ran in the 1,500-meter run and crossed the finish line in 2:01.41.

Tyler will get one more final opportunity to post a faster time at the GVSU Last Chance Meet. His best of 48.32 seconds is still tied for 19th. The student-athletes with the top 20 declared times will be given the opportunity to compete at the 2012 NCAA Division III National Championships May 24-26 at Claremont-Mudd-Scripps.
