CARMEL, Ind. - Redshirt freshman Keith Bye paced IUPUI's three entries under less than ideal conditions at the Stan Lyons Bulldog Invitational at Northview Church on Friday (Oct. 22). Runners from Butler, Purdue and IUPUI competed in an 8K race under a light drizzle at the site of the upcoming BIG EAST and Horizon League Championships. 

Bye clocked a personal best 8K time of 26:56.9, taking 10 seconds off his previous best at the same course while finishing 11th overall. Behind him, Jack Acton spun a time of 27:54.8 and Jacob Williams finished at 30:03.9. 

Purdue's Alex Frey won the race in a time of 25:25.6 and the Boilermakers edged Butler in the team scoring, 23 to 32. IUPUI wasn't included in the team scoring with just three attached entries. 

IUPUI will host the Horizon League Championships on Saturday, Oct. 30 at Northview.
