Fantastic Women's Hammer at Penn

[trackstar]

Okay, this is for you throwers who whine about how us anorexic distance runners dominate track message boards: The women's hammer throw results at the Penn relays look pretty incredible:

1 68.23 / 223'10 Candice Scott Florida
2 67.41 / 221'02 Erin Gilreath Florida

Both marks beat the NCAA record (67.21/220-6, Jamine Moton, Clemson).

Trackwire's latest "Dandy Dozens" rankings had Scott pegged to win NCAA this year, but considered Gilreath a non-scorer. This ought to shake things up a bit. I wish I could have seen this one.

The Penn Relays site made a mistake on Erin's mark as it's 62.41m and not 67.41m. Still a PR for her by 5 feet.
