Long Beach, CA. -- The Bradley Track & Field team returns after a successful trip to California which included three school records falling. 

School Records Go Down
Over the three-day trip to California, Charlie Parrish, George Watson and Leah Thames all captured school records. 

On Thursday, Charlie Parrish broke the school record that he had previously held in the 3000M steeplechase with a time of 8:47.27. This record-breaking performance will likely land Parrish a spot at the NCAA West Preliminaries in May. 

On Friday, George Watson captured the school record in the 10000M race with a time of 28:49.43. Watson could be on the bubble for earning a bid at the NCAA West Preliminaries. 

To wrap up the school records, on Saturday, Leah Thames grabbed the school record in the 200m with a time of 24.25. 

Other Notable Performances
Charlie Parrish doubled down on his impressive performances for the weekend when he picked up a personal record and top 10 time in school history in the 1500m with a time of 3:47.64. 

Elsewhere for the Braves, Matt Aho ran the second fastest ever on the men's side in the 5000m race at 14:00.37. 

Peyton Schieppe ran the second-fastest time in school history on the women's side in the 5000m race at 16:10.05. This is also the fastest time in school history by a true freshman in this event. 

Tiana LoStracco recorded her third-fastest time ever and best in a Bradley uniform in the 800m with a time of 2:06.02. 

Caden Simone ran the best time in school history for a true freshman in the 5000m in 14:28.28.
 
Michael Rebello narrowly missed his personal best in the 5000m with a time of 14:12.38.
 
Kaitlyn Sheppard finished with a top 10 time in the 5000m with a time of 16:47.27. 

Max Dieterich picked up a personal record and a Bradley top 10 in the 1500m with a time of 3:47.50, 

Noah Costa hit a personal record in the 1500m in 3:52.85. 

Olivia Harp picked up a personal best in the 5000m with a time of 17:13.15. 

What's Coming Up?
The Braves are back in action this weekend in two different events. Part of the team will head to Champaign, Illinois for the Gary Wieneke Memorial and the others will travel to Bloomington, Indiana for the Indiana Invitational.
