</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>The Friars had three IC4A Championship qualifying times at the Stanford Invitational.
</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>PRINCETON, N.J. –</strong> The Providence College men's track and field team concluded competition at the Sam Howell Invitational (Princeton, N.J.) and the Stanford Invitational (Palo Alto, Calif.). The Friars captured IC4A Championship qualifying
times at the Stanford Invitational (April 4) in the 10,000 meter run.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sophomore Benjamin Connor (Derby, England) finished sixth with a time of 29:18.62 for an IC4A qualifying performance in the 10,000 meter run, while junior Brian Doyle (Swansea, Mass.) finished 19<sup>th</sup> with an IC4A time of 29:42.24.
</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Doyle's classmate, Liam Hillery (Smithfield, R.I.) also captured an IC4A qualifying time in the 10,000 meter run with a time of 30:31.87.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>At the Sam Howell Invitational, sophomore Austin King (Kempton, Pa.) finished 12<sup>th</sup> in the 400 meter dash with a time of 49.74.
