"We had a great weekend!" Head Track and Field Coach Jeff Small said. "We won seven events on the women's side that had 15 teams competing which is outstanding. The women set two more school records while missing a third by 1/100th of a second. Really proud of how the men competed too."
Abby Herring's win in the 1,000 set a personal and team record in the event, racing 2:54.06. Fellow record-breaker from a week ago, Tyra Thomas won the 100 meter hurdles with a time of 8.38, her 8.37 was a school record set from the Marshall Classic.
Other victories included Kylee Mastin in the Mile, Elicia Wood in the High Jump, and the 4x400 team composed of Mikah Alleyne, Astoria Beckett, Erica Murphy, and Thomas.
