Albuquerque, NM - Junior Nick Hearld finished third and junior Justin Ballinger eighth in the men's decathlon Thursday at the Mountain West Conference outdoor championships.
Hearld dominated the 1,500-meters, the last event of the day, with a time of 4:42.46. The time gave him 662 points to bring his two-day total to 6,715. Brigham Young's Curtis Pugsley won the decathlon with 7,110 points.
Ballinger, a senior, tallied 6,082 points. Ballinger's best event during the competition came in the javelin where he finished second with a throw of 160-feet, 9-inches.
Pugsley posted the top performances in two of the five events Thursday despite wind gusts that reached 40 to 50 miles per hour at times. However, he fell short of surpassing his 2000 winning total of 7,525 points. Pugsley did not compete last season due to an injury.
Pugsley posted the fastest time in the 110-meter hurdles (15.02) and in the discus (122-feet, 4-inches)
Team scores after just one event had Brigham Young with 21 points followed by New Mexico with nine points and Air Force with seven points.
The meet continues Friday with qualifying heats and finals in eight field events and four running events.
