EUGENE, Ore. --  All three Sooners competing in the 2008 Oregon Relays in Eugene recorded NCAA Regional qualifying marks in the 1,500 meter run as OU athletes continued to rack up regional qualifying marks in advance of the NCAA Midwest Regional May 30-31 in Lincoln, Neb.

Jessica Eldridge, Catherine Odell and Rob Sorrell all eclipsed the NCAA Regional qualifying mark in their respective divisions. 

Sorrell posted a personal-best time of 3:44.29 en route to finishing eighth in the men's first section.  Sorrell continued his recent streak of shaving seconds off his time, topping his previous best of 3:46.94 set last week at the John McDonnell Invitational in Fayetteville, Ark.
