In the final tune-up before next weekend’s Big Ten Indoor Track and Field Championships, the Ohio State men’s and women’s track and field teams had numerous winning performances at today’s Scarlet and Gray Invitational in the French Field House. Among those was the dramatic come-from-behind victory of the men’s 4×400 meter relay, anchored by Andrew Pierce (So., Yellow Springs, Ohio). Pierce also won the 200 meter dash. Ian Connor (So., Lexington, Ohio) scored a double by sweeping the mile and 3,000 meter distance events, while on the women’s front Donica Merriman (So, Trotwood, Ohio) had the best time for the day in the 60 meter dash and 60 meter low hurdles. %^$
