MADRID, SPAIN – Devynne Charlton won the 60-meter hurdles on the Madrid stop in the World Indoor Tour Friday, finishing in a time of 7.68 seconds, one one-hundredth of a second off the world record-setting time of 7.67 seconds that she ran just two weeks ago in New York.

Tia Jones tied that record just a few days later in New Mexico.

Nadine Visser of the Netherlands came second in 7.78 seconds and Pia Skrzyszowskara of Poland came third in 7.83 seconds.

Daalen Adderley left the yard to help his Loyola Maryland Lions get a 4-0 win over the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners Friday afternoon at the Tony Gwynn Classic in San Diego.

The two-run shot to left centerfield came in the top of the first and that would be all the Lions needed as they shut out Bakersfield.
