Another UA freshman, Maksims Sincukovs, ran his season-best time of 50.49 to qualify for Friday鈥檚 final race in the 400-meter hurdles. He had the seventh-best time in the event. Sincukovs鈥� best time is 50.35, set last August in Europe.

Bailey Roth in the steeplechase and Collins Kibet in the 800 meters 鈥� both running their final races in a UA uniform 鈥� were way off their personal bests and did not advance to the finals.

Geist got off a strong toss of 66 feet, 8 inches on his second attempt that placed him in second place at the end of the first round of throws. That was just 3陆 inches off his best mark for the outdoor season.

The Pennsylvania-born thrower did not improve his mark on his final three attempts while three competitors jumped ahead of him on their fifth or final throws.

UA throwers coach T.J. Crater said he felt good about the results, but both he and Geist had held higher expectations.

鈥淢aking first team All-American at this level of competition is a great achievement, especially for a freshman,鈥� Crater said. 鈥淣ext year, Jordan knows he has to execute his throws better to give him a chance to win a national championship.鈥�

Geist鈥檚 fifth place scored four points for the UA team.

Geist threw 70 feet, 4陆 inches on Jan. 26, early in the indoor season, which is still the furthest throw this year by the collegian.

Denzel Comenentia, a Georgia junior, threw 67-7陆 on his fifth throw to win the shot put. He also won the hammer throw to give his team 20 points and the team lead with six of the 21 events completed.

On Thursday, the UA 400-meters and the 1,600-meter relay teams will be in action as the women鈥檚 competition gets under way.

The remainder of the men鈥檚 events will take place Friday. The UA鈥檚 Bryant O鈥橤eorgia will compete in the high jump and both Geist and Turner Washington will be in the running in the discus.
