Weight thrower Daniel Haugh and hurdler Grant Holloway set world record and hurdler Tia Jones tied a world record on Friday at the USA Track & Field Indoor Championships in Albuquerque, N.M.

Haugh won the men’s weight throw with an attempt of 86 feet, 5 1/2 inches, topping the mark of 84-10 1/4 set by Lance Deal on March 4, 1995 — two months before Haugh was born. Isaiah Rogers came in second at 80–1, and Tanner Berg took third at 76–9 3/4.
