Final Results
PHILADELPHIA – Troy outdoor track and field ended its final regular season meet with a bang this weekend at the historic Penn Relays.
Competing in the oldest and longest-running track and field meet in the country against some of the top competition nationally, the Trojans were able to compete and bring home several top eight finishes.
The top finish of the day was by Titus Sizemore, who leaped out to 2.08 meters in the high jump to bring home a fourth-place finish in the collegiate division.
Riley Schwietz and Indiya Summerville each turned in solid performances, also. Schwietz set a new personal record with a 44.74-meter javelin throw and came away with fifth in the event. Meanwhile, Summerville threw a 14.64-meter shot put to finish seventh.
The relay teams continued their string of success with three teams making the finals in their respective events. The men's 4x400-meter relay team finished sixth in the finals with a time of 3:11.30 and the 4x100-meter team ran the fifth-fastest qualifying time to advance. On the women's side, the 4x400 team placed eighth with a 3:41.47-minute run.
Next up for the squad is the 2018 Sun Belt Outdoor Championships in San Marcos, Texas, from May 11-13.
Notable
• Riley Schwietz has been on fire as of late, winning her first collegiate event and breaking the school record in the heptathlon in the following meet.
• Five returning Trojans have NCAA postseason experience entering this year. Junior Hakim Montgomery has earned a trip in each of his first two seasons.
• Troy indoor track and field placed fifth at the conference championships in February, tying for the highest finish in program history – finished fifth twice before.
• No days off. The Trojans will compete in at least one meet each weekend from March 16 until the Sun Belt Outdoor Championships in San Marcos, Texas, May 11-13.
