LEXINGTON, Ky. — An ex-Bear stole the show, but many of the current Bears put together award-winning performances as well.

Former Baylor standout Trayvon Bromell ran a new world best for 2016 in the 60-meter dash at Saturday’s Rod McCravy Invitational. Bromell, who turned professional last October, stumbled out the blocks, but still recovered to blaze to a time of 6.54 seconds.

Meanwhile, Baylor’s current athletes gathered five event titles at the meet, their second of the indoor season. On the women’s side, Cion Hicks set a new personal record in the shot put in winning gold, throwing 54-2 3/4.

Jenna Pfeiffer provided the BU women’s other victory with gold in the pentathlon on Friday. The Bears also had bronze-medal showings from Maggie Montoya in the 3,000 meters (9:31.19) and Rachel Toliver in the triple jump. Toliver broke off a personal-best leap of 42-0.

Baylor’s men lived up to their Quarter-Miler U billing. George Caddick won the 400-meter title by clocking 46.54, the best time in the nation thus far this season. The Bears also grabbed a silver in the 4x400-meter relay, as the foursome of Wil London, Richard Gary, Brandon Moore and Caddick zipped to a time of 3:05.90. It was Baylor’s best indoor 4x400 time since the 2011 NCAA Championships.
