Former Bulldog 5th at Pac 12 Championships


Washington State junior distance runner Sam Levora, pictured leading the pack last fall in cross country, posted one of his best finishes as a collegiate track athlete amid chilly temperatures and occasional downpours at the Pac-12 Championships at Oregon’s Hayward Field in Eugene last weekend. Running his first 10,000 meter race on the track, Levora clocked a 29:22.90 to finish fifth, just .03 seconds behind his teammate. It was one of the most competitive men’s 10,000 meter races in recent conference history, and Levora finished just 11 seconds behind Oregon’s Edward Cheserek, with the final scoring eight places just 22 seconds off the lead. Levora will compete on May 25 at the NCAA West Regionals in Austin, Texas.
