Record-setting afternoon at UAlbany: Alex Cunningham gets 110 hurdle record

Congratulations to sophomore Alex Cunningham, who became the first athlete in school history to eclipse the 15-second barrier in the 110-meter high hurdles, on Saturday at the UAlbany Last Chance meet. Alex placed second overall and ran 14.96 seconds, bettering the 2003 mark of 15.10 seconds, set by Marist Track Royalty Eli Bisnett-Cobb. Alex was a bit disappointed to have fallen short of the IC4A mark of 14.85 seconds in the event, but this was still a truly remarkable performance of which he should be extremely proud -- as we are. Nicely done, Alex!
