Highlighting the invite was freshman Braxton Claridy who set the Men's 200 School Record in 22.00, into a headwind, to win his heat by over a half of second, placing 4^thoverall.

"The streak continues! Another week and another school record set. These athletes keep working hard and it has led to this whole program elevating to standards never seen before," remarked Assistant Coach Katie Burnett.

Other top performances included a CCC qualifying performance by freshman Calvin Hume in the Men's 400 hurdles with a time of 1:01.84, the 5^th best performance in school history.
