KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (April 11, 2008) - Senior Justin Bohler set a school record in the decathlon to pace the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee men's track and field in the opening of the Sea Ray Relays Friday at the University of Tennessee.

The meet, which actually kicked off Wednesday with the start of the multi-events, was shortened on Friday due to rain. The Sea Ray Relays wrap up Saturday.

Bohler scored 6,836 points to take fifth in the event and eclipse Paul McGinley's school standard of 6,799 points set in 1996. His scored also fell just shy of the NCAA provisional score of 6,900.

Sophomores Tyler Bucholz and Isaiah Adams were the only other Panthers to finish their events on the day, competing in the 400m. Bucholz took 15th in 48.00 and Adams was 27th in 48.85.
