SEATTLE (Jan. 28) ­ Chris Randolph shattered his own Seattle Pacific University record, plus the Dempsey Facility mark while winning the men's heptathlon at the Washington Indoor Invitational track and field meet Saturday.

Randolph (Sr., Lone Tree, Co./Denver Christian), the NCAA Division II decathlon winner last spring, scored a total of 5508 points to finish 50 points in front of Weber State's Wiley King.

During his seven events over two days, Randolph also broke his own SPU records in the long jump (22 feet, 11 inches), 60-meter hurdles (8.39) and pole vault (14-11). His old heptathlon standard had been 5141.

His new mark is the sixth-highest mark by an American this season and qualifies Randolph for the U.S. Championships.

Randolph met the Div. II provisional qualifying standard in the long jump. His other marks were 7.26 in the 60 dash, 41-11 1/2 in the shot put, 6-5 1/2 in the high jump and 2:45.27 in the 1000 run.

In the women's pentathlon, the Falcons' Kelsey Cooley (Jr., Missoula, Mt./Hellgate) was 10th with a score of 3420 and Linda Blake (Sr., Richland, Wa.) was 11th with 3415. Both were personal-best scores. Danielle Ayers-Stamper, now of Cal Poly San Lis Obispo, won with 3956.

The rest of the SPU athletes will compete in Sunday's UW Indoor Open No. 2.
