The Villanova men went slowest to fastest to grab the men’s 4 x 800 title at the 2014 Penn Relays today in 7:16.58- 1:51.80 for Josh Lampron, 1:49.45 for Dusty Solis, 1:48.77 for Jordan Williamsz, and 1:46.58 for Samuel Ellison.
Williamsz’s third leg was key as he ended up breaking things open and giving Ellison a comfortable lead. Defending champs Penn State got a nice solid anchor leg from Brannon Kidder (1:46.96) but there was no way he was going to make up more than 2 seconds when Eillison was running so well.
Penn state, who was without Robbie Creese and Cas Loxsom from last year’s winning team, only got a 1:53.35 on the opening leg which proved to be fatal for them. Za’Von Watkins ran a strong 1:49.97 to get them back into it on leg two but they just had too much work to do on the anchor.
Georgetown was the only other team to break 7:20.00 as they were third in 7:19.97.
