Works runs 800 p.r. to place fifth at Cal-Nevada meet
Christy Works, a 2008 Carson High graduate now running as a sophomore for the University of Nevada women's track and field team, set a personal record for 800 meters and placed fifth at the Cal-Nevada Championships on Sunday in Westwood, Calif.
Running in her first 800 competition of the outdoor season, Works turned a time of 2 minutes, 13.78 seconds in the final at UCLA's Drake Stadium. Later, Works ran for Nevada's 4x400 relay team, combining with Deirdre Perrigrue, April Pate and Cristina Hibbert to finish 10th overall in 3:50.45 -- the ninth-best 4x400m relay time in the history of Nevada's program.
