"We had a great showing in Philadelphia over the last few days," Troy director Marc Davis said. "Our goal was to advance our competitors to the finals, and I think we did a good job achieving this goal. It was perfect weather and a perfect setting for some great performances, I think we represented Trojan Nation well. We have our sights set on the Sun Belt Championship, and I think we have some good momentum going in."
The women's 4x100-meter relay made the college final after a great preliminary round; finishing in fifth place and earning a medal in the final. The women's sprint medley relay saw success as well, crossing the line in a school record time of 3:56.79. Corina Wieser-Cox had a solid performance in the discus throw championship event, finishing in eighth place with a throw of 52.36 meters.
Zach Douglas was a double medalist at the relays – finishing in third place in the college shot put and fifth place in the college discus. Hakim Montgomery ran a strong race in the 100-meter dash, earning himself a personal record time of 10.22 – which was good enough for 4th place in the event.
WHAT'S UP NEXT?
The Trojans will take the weekend off in preparation for the upcoming Sun Belt Outdoor Championships set for May 12-14.
