AZUSA, Calif. - Junior Josh Farmer won the decathlon at the Franson Classic Multis with a personal-record 7,648 points Saturday at Cougar Athletic Stadium.

"We are very proud of Josh and his hard work as this is a testament to that," said UCI head coach Jeff Perkins. "He really put together a great two days of consistent effort as that is what the decathlon is all about."
 
Farmer, who entered the day in second place, took home the title after scoring 3,508 points through the final five events. He established three personal records and had four top-two finishes.
 
The San Diego native began the day in the 110m hurdles where he clocked in at 15.33 while running into a headwind of 1.2 meters per second. He then registered the top mark in the discus, improving his lifetime best by five feet with a toss of 130-08.
 
Farmer was also the runner-up in the pole vault and javelin with personal-bests of 15-01 and 167-11, respectively. He then closed out the meet with a time of 4:45.77 in the 1500m.
