TicketsCINCINNATI — University of Cincinnati track and field athletes Ade Lloyd and Miller Mabury will compete at the USATF U20 Outdoor Championships this week in Eugene, Oregon, at Hayward Field.
Lloyd will run the 400 meters, and Mabury will compete in the decathlon. All times below are listed in Eastern Standard Time.
Lloyd is scheduled to run in the third heat of Thursday's 400m prelims at 3:38 p.m. The top two finishers in each heat, along with the next three fastest times overall, will advance to Friday's final at 6:43 p.m.
Mabury opens the decathlon Thursday at 2:35 p.m. with the long jump, followed by the shot put and high jump. The competition resumes Friday with the discus, pole vault and javelin throw.
The meet determines who will represent the United States at the World Athletics U20 Championships, also in Eugene, this August. To qualify, an athlete must finish in the top two of their event and meet the official World Athletics U20 entry standard; the U.S. is limited to two athletes per individual event, so both placement and the standard matter.
The qualifying standard, according to the World Athletics U20 Championships Oregon 26 Qualification System and Entry Standards, is 47.40 seconds in the 400m and 7,100 points in the decathlon.
