LUBBOCK, Texas - Two Butler runners posted national qualifying times over the weekend at the Texas Tech Invite.

Sophomore middle distance runner Kelvin Busienei led the way for the Grizzlies. Busienei qualified for nationals in the 1000 meter run on Friday. On Saturday, he ran a great mile just missing the very tough qualify time by less than a second. He then concluded the meet by running the fastest leg on the 4 x 400 meter relay that also just missed the qualifying standard. "Kelvin had a great day. He is one of those athletes that could qualify in any of the track events from 400 meters up to the 5000 meters. A runner like that is very important to the success of the overall team" Commented Coach Jeff Becker.

Also having a great day was freshman, Coty Williams. Williams ran a great 600 to qualify him for the national championships.

The next action for the Grizzlies and Lady Grizzlies will be January 27th at the University of Kansas.
