BATON ROUGE - Southeastern Louisiana University senior thrower Teremine White set a new school mark in the men\'s shot put with a throw of 17.03 m (55 ft. 10.5 in) as he finished second to LSU\'s Ricky Jean Francois at the 2008 LSU Last Chance Meet. White\'s throw was beat the previous record of 55 ft. 9.75 in set by Ruben Stephens in 2007.
