Murray State University sprinter Alexis Love broke an 18 year old school and Ohio Valley Conference record in the 200 meter run this weekend. 

Love set the record at the East Regional NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Jacksonville, Florida. She now moves onto the NCAA Semifinals where she'll run in both the 100 meter and 200 meter races. Love's record-setting run also qualifies her for the 200 meter Olympic Trials.

Shelly Baskin works in MSU's Office of Regional Outreach and is a graduate student in Occupational Safety and Health. A roustabout from Memphis, Tennessee, Shelly first found his way into WKMS through the newsroom back in 2011 through luck, charm and force of will. Though he left news for another position, he still enjoys working on independent radio projects and volunteering for the station. He’s an avid disc golfer and occasional real golfer and is terrible at both. A lover of all things musical, Shelly is always ready to hear something new and unique.
