TOPEKA and WICHITA &ndash; One day after the Hutchinson Community College men's track and field indoor 5,000-meter record fell, so did the 400- and 800-meter records on Saturday.
Sophomore&nbsp;<a href="https://bluedragonsports.com/sports/mtrack/2024-25/bios/thid_david_57oh">David Thid</a>&nbsp;became the new Blue Dragon 400-meter record holder and a bit later in the day, sophomore&nbsp;<a href="https://bluedragonsports.com/sports/mtrack/2024-25/bios/legrand_leo_gfpl">Leo LeGrand</a>&nbsp;claimed Hutchinson's 800-meter record at the Washburn Open at the Washburn Indoor Athletic Facility in Topeka.
Thid and LeGrand were part of six new national qualifiers for the Blue Dragon men over the weekend.
Thid won the Washburn Open 400 meters with a national qualifying and Blue Dragon record time of 47.16 seconds. This is Thid's second individual school record of his career. He broke the outdoor 400-meter intermediate hurdle record last spring when he won the NJCAA National Championship in the event.
Thid eclipsed the oldest Blue Dragon men's indoor record still standing. The Blue Dragon sophomore broke the 38-yard mark of Terry Sullivan, who ran 48.20 to set the record in 1987.
LeGrand finished eighth in the 800 meters, posting a school-record time of 1:53.06. That national qualifying mark broke the 202 record of 1:53.92 set by multi-time All-American Andrew Kibet.
LeGrand is now qualified in two events, notching a spot in the 1,000 meters last week at the NAIA/JUCO Challenge in Pittsburg.
Sophomore&nbsp;<a href="https://bluedragonsports.com/sports/mtrack/2024-25/bios/mangelson_farrin_7y5g">Farrin Mangelson</a>&nbsp;started the record-breaking weekend off on Friday breaking the indoor 5,000 meters with a time of 14:35.35.
A fourth school record was .83 seconds from going down as the Blue Dragon men's 4x400 relay team qualified for nationals with a fourth-place time of 3:14.89. The relay team of&nbsp;<a href="https://bluedragonsports.com/sports/mtrack/2024-25/bios/lester_da-shawn_ptrw">Da'Shawn Lester</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://bluedragonsports.com/sports/mtrack/2024-25/bios/telemaque_rickyle_kzmg">Rickyle Telemaque</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://bluedragonsports.com/sports/mtrack/2024-25/bios/warren_d-antonio_9loc">D'Antonio Warren</a>&nbsp;and Thid posted the second-fastest time in Blue Dragon history.
Through three weekend of the indoor season, the Blue Dragon men's track and field team have 11 total national indoor qualifiers.
Part of the Blue Dragon squad also competed at the Coach Wilson Invitational at the Heskett Center in Wichita on Saturday.
Freshman&nbsp;<a href="https://bluedragonsports.com/sports/mtrack/2024-25/bios/parkinson_malique_53uy">Malique Parkinson</a>&nbsp;won the triple jump with a mark of 46-2 1/4 (14.04 meters).
Freshman Giovanni Jones was fifth in the 200 meters with a time of 23.01 seconds.
Freshman Lushane Blake was seventh in the 600 meters with a time of 1:28.69.
Freshman&nbsp;<a href="https://bluedragonsports.com/sports/mtrack/2024-25/bios/martinez_gregory_ohfu">Gregory Martinez</a>&nbsp;placed seventh in the pole vault with a height f 13-10 1/4 (4.22 meters).
