Using the spin technique for the first time, Ryan Crouser of
Barlow (Gresham, Ore.) set a national prep record by throwing the 16-pound shot put 63 feet, 11 inches. Competing in the New Balance West Invitational indoor meet at Boise State University, the 6-7, 240-pound Crouser broke the previous record of 60 feet, 7.5 inches by Arnold Campbell in 1984. Sidelined by injury, Crouser was competing for the first time since May.
