Senior thrower Greg Semanisin throws weight during practice Monday at the SIU throwing field. Throws coach John Smith said it was a nice crappy day to throw. “We’re going to have a few days in the spring like this so they’ve gotta learn to throw in the rain,” Smith said. The first event in their season will be the Saluki fast Start Dec.8 at the SIU Recreation Center. Nicole Hester-Daily Egyptian
