Go Mustangs!

The 4x100 team ran a 45.13 in their preliminary heat, which unfortunately does not qualify for the finals.

Lucija Cvitanovic has a best distance of 45.04m in the javelin - second flight still to come.

Cvitanovic finishes 22nd in the javelin.

I watched the men's races yesterday and some of the women's tonight. SMU is hurting not having a (elite) men's program.
I didn't see any SMU women compete tonight. I watched the races I'm most interested in and tonight those were the 1500 meters and 3000 meters steeplechase.
It's hard to believe that in the women's 3 ST North Dakota State and New Hampshire each have two runners in the final out of 12 competitors.

Isabella Marten had a best distance of 12.74m in the triple jump. She finished 14th and earned second-team All-America honors!

Congratulations!
