Former Twin Lakes standout Adam Cornell was a consistent performer for the Purdue University menâs indoor track team this season. The Monticello resident competed primarily in the hurdles, with appearances in the 200- and 400-meter dashes. Cornellâs best finish in the 200 meters was at the Purdue Open with a time of 23.234 seconds. He posted a time of 7.77 in the 55-meter high hurdles to earn a 16th-place preliminary finish at the Big Ten Indoor Track and Field Championships in Columbus, Ohio. The team captured fifth place at the meet, its best finish since 1990. Cornell is a sophomore majoring in liberal arts at Purdue.
