Stop press edit: The 4x100 squad finished fourth in the preliminary heat, and has qualified for the finals on Saturday. Go Cats!
On May 27 in Austin, Texas, the Kansas State women’s 4x100 relay team—Akia Guerrier, A’Keyla Mitchell, Ranae McKenzie, and Wurrie Njadoe—made history. The four sprinters set a new school record, and also became the first Kansas State relay squad to ever qualify for the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
Akia Guerrier is a freshman from Turks and Caicos, and is the national record holder there in the 100m, 200m, and 400m events.
