Posted: May 9, 2005 Athletics: Invaders' Hon Posts Another "A" Standard In 110 Hurdles (INDIANAPOLIS) The Indiana Invaders' Brandon Hon finished second in the Men's Special Invitational 110 meter hurdles with a career best mark of 13.67 seconds at the Jesse Owens Classic held Saturday, May 7th on Ohio State University's campus. Hon, a graduate of the University of Cincinnati, finished second in the 110 hurdles and was third in the invitational section of the 400 hurdles with a season's best time of 51.10 seconds. Hon wrapped up his day and the meet by running the anchor on Team USA's winning 4x400 meter relay. Teammate Jason Briggs, a graduate of Indiana State University, won the Invitational 800 in his season debut at the distance with a time of 1:51.02. Briggs, a 2004 Olympic Trials qualifier has a personal best of 1:47.00 from 2004. Team Director Greg Harger said, "Hon's 110 race was rough so the time is encouraging while his 400 hurdle race showed significant improvement as he works to incorporate new management of technique into his race efforts. Mastering these new elements will certainly leave Hon at the next level in the near future." Harger added, "Brigg's initial effort was a solid tactical race and now he will add fitness through consistent training over the next 4-5 weeks to return to national class times."
