GOLDANDBLACK EXPRESS • VOLUME 25, EXPRESS 16 • 28 THE HILL GROUP REHABILITATION INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO hillgrp.com We're Illinois' largest mechanical contractor … and proud to have 38 outstanding Purdue alumni on our HVAC/Plumbing team. Warren Hill, ME '63 Jim Hill, MET '95, MBA '03 Jim Billard, LA '90 Brian Teyema, ME '87 Scott Dierking, IM '77 Russ Nelson, BCM '00 David Pikey, PH '97 Bill Silfies, MBA '03 Nick Muscolino, MET '06 Matthew Crawford, MET '05 Bob Hill, BCM '06 Anthony Camasta, MET '04 Beth Beigelbeck, SM '97 Deborah Toth, MET '07 Daniel Block, ME '08 Daniel Gasser, BS '04 Jason Jones, MET '08 Nick Johnson, BCM '09 Bryan O'Neill, BCM '09 Steven Sitkowski, BCM '10 Isaac Townsend, ME '10 Don Wunderlich, ME '13 Taylor Spaulding, ME '12 Grant Fillipitch, MET '12 Jessica James, BS '13 Robert C.

"He's strong, he's fit and he's getting to the point that he can run like a middle distance runner." Greene feels even better about the team's performance Saturday considering some of the individuals who didn't perform. Raheem Mostert, the defending Big Ten champion in the 60m dash and 100m dash, sat out Saturday's meet, along with fellow football players Anthony Brown and Gregory Phillips. Mostert's eligibility is up in football, but Brown and Phillips still are part of the team. Additionally, highly touted high jumper Miles Poullard, a community college mid- year transfer who has cleared 7-feet, 2-inch - es, is expected to arrive on campus this week. "We still have a few pieces to plug into the equation that we have not unleashed, the likes of Raheem and some others indi- viduals we sat down," Greene said. "Once we unleash them, I think we will make a state- ment. All of those pieces have still yet to be put into place. "That makes it exciting." The track program has made significant strides since Greene arrived in 2012. Nine school records were broken during the indoor season in 2014, while the men's and women's teams each placed fifth at the outdoor Big Ten Championships after finish - ing last the year before Greene arrived. "Coach Greene lets us know that it's just as much our team as it is his team," Enekwe- chi said. "He lets us know exactly what the goals are and puts numbers on them so it makes the goals realistic and what we have to do to get to those goals. "He's changed the culture and has held us accountable to what we have to do at each stage. He approaches it like any other sport where he has a gameplan for every sin- gle meet and that's something different that I've seen that I think has improved the team."" With a deep and talented lineup with postseason experience, Greene said he is ready for Purdue to take another leap in 2015. "We will continue to be relevant in the country and in the Big Ten if we have any- thing to say and do about it," Greene said. "If we can stay healthy, I think we'll have some- thing to say when it really counts down the stretch." j Links PurdueSports.com: Doug Welch provides major upset in loss to Nebraska PurdueSports.com: Swimming finishes off dual wins vs. Michigan State PurdueSports.com: Schneiderhahn, Baumgardner named soccer assistants PurdueSports.com: Welch trio sweeps as Purdue falls to Wisconsin IndyStar.com: Trio among state's top Olympic athletes
