Beamish and Long Smash Huge PRs at Husky Classic 5000 -- Both Break the 14:00 Barrier




The Washington Husky Classic got off to a big bang for the Villanova men tonight as Hugo Beamish smashed past the 14:00 barrier in the 5000, winning his section in 13:51.60, and finishing 10th overall of 88 competitors. Beamish's best 5000 prior to tonight's effort was his 14:05.25 at last year's Big East outdoor championships. He made short work of that time and came close to the NCAA auto qualifier of 13:47.00.
The night was good for Brian Long as well. Long also broke 14:00 for the first time and set a new PR of 13:59.72, crushing his previous indoor best of 14:20.01. All that despite running the final 10 laps with only one shoe. Long finished 25th of 88 competitors. Here are (a) a post-race interview with Hugo and (b) the complete combined results of the numerous 5000 sections.
