National marks set at Charlie Thomas Invitational

On Friday, the Cougars traveled to College Station for the Charlie Thomas Invitational. Senior Cameron Burrell, senior Cameron Cornelius, freshman Nathaniel Mechler and others received rest from their respective events, but the open spaces provided opportunities for others to test themselves. In total, the two teams had four top 3 finishes while eight PRs were set.

Sophomore thrower Taylor Scaife has been making headlines all season long.

Saturday, she claimed the largest so far as she took home the school record in the weight throw. Her throw of 20.44m, while only good for second place on the day, crushed Emily Nnokwam’s 2013 record of 18.
