Ryan Olkowski led the Penn State men's track and field team in a romp at the Colonial Relays this weekend at William and Mary.

The Nittany Lions finished with 219 points, while Rutgers finished second with 117.5 points. Host team William and Mary was third with 116 points and Seton Hall scored 104 points.

"It was great to start the season this way, winning by 100 points," Olkowski said. "We have developed a rivalry with Seton Hall, and it's good to show them how good we are."

The Lions also picked up five individual first place finishes, and three more from the relays, along with several seconds and thirds.

Olkowski won both the 100-meter dash (10.67 seconds) and the long jump (23-03.5 ft.), and took second in the 200-meter dash (21.01 seconds), which was a personal best.

He was also the anchor leg of the winning 4 x 200-meter relay (1:26.48 seconds). Olkowski also finished second in the high jump (6-07.5 ft.).

"Ryan put forth a very competitive effort," Penn State men's track and field coach Harry Groves said. "He did a lot for the team this weekend."

Olkowski, however, was not the only individual who turned in a good performance.

Brian Derby turned in a record-breaking performance this weekend. He set the record in the 400-meter immediate hurdles, with a time of 51.20.

"I thought that I have run fast enough in the previous weeks to have a chance," Derby said. "I did extremely well, even better than I thought I'd do, given the conditions I had to run in."

The last two individual winners were James Carney and Greg Davis. Carney was the winner of the 5,000 meters. He won with a time of 14:33.21. Davis won the 3,000-meter Steeplechase with a time of 9:16.70.

The Lions won the distance medley in addition to the 4 x 200 and 4 x 400. They were also winning the 4 x 100 until the Penn State dropped the baton. The winning 4 x 200-meter team consisted of Munya Maraire, Guy Rose, Greg Miller and Olkowski.

The Nittany Lions will be in action again at noon Saturday in the US Coaches meet in Philadelphia. The Lions will run against Penn, Princeton and Villanova.
