Director of Track and Field and Cross Country Steve Rainbolt said the Shocker men had a nice day in the heptathlon.
"Tanner Brown in particular had a really good day," Rainbolt said. "He ran the second fastest 60-meter time in school history and is in good position going in to day two to battle for a high finish."
Brown closed out the first day of the heptathlon in fourth place with a total of 2,942 points.
Brown's day included a victory in the 60 meters to start the day. He ran a time of 6.79, which is a personal best and the second-fastest time in school history. Brown followed with a top-five finish in the long jump.
Vann is not far behind his teammate in the overall standings with 2,846 points. Vann also had a strong 60 meters race, running a time of 7.08 for fourth place. Vann jumped 6.63m/21-9 to finish in the top three of the long jump.
Hudson Bailey also competed for the Shockers in the heptathlon. His best performance came in the high jump when he cleared 1.91m/6-3.25 to finish in a tie for fifth.
The heptathlon concludes Friday with the 60-meter hurdles, pole vault and 1,000 meters.
On the women's side, Anna Heacock finished 11th in the pentathlon with 3,018 points. Heacock's best placement came in the high jump where she cleared 1.48m/4-10.25 for 10th place in the event. Her overall score was a personal best.
"She is a freshman and has been through a lot with some injuries, so I'm really proud of her and believing that she will be able to build on this going forward into the outdoor season," Rainbolt said.
Day 2 of the Championship at The Peak is set for 10 a.m. on Friday. The conclusion of the heptathlon, select field events and qualifiers for track events make up the second day of competition.
