AUSTIN, Texas – Senior Claire Meyers broke a 28-year-old record in the women's javelin as she led a pair of Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Track and Field members to top-5 finishes during the opening day of the 93rd Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays on Thursday at Mike A. Myers Stadium.
Coverage of the three-day event continues on Friday and will be available on the Longhorn Network with live results available at RaginCajuns.com.
Meyers claimed the individual title in the B section of the women's javelin after her throw of 163 feet, 9 inches on her second attempt eclipsed the Ragin' Cajuns school record of 160-1 set by Dorsey Steamer in 1993.
