The Oklahoma State women’s track and field team wrapped up competition in Fayetteville, Arkansas, on Saturday, which included a record-breaking performance from the Cowgirls’ 4x400-meter relay team.
The team of Aaliyah Birmingham, Christina Ollison, Kalaya Ali and Nicolette Dixon ran a time of 3:39.86 to break the previous record, set in 1997, by 1.44 seconds.
“The four women that ran today obviously did a great job,” head coach Dave Smith said. “The women’s sprint group is really rolling right now. Coach McDonnell has them running well and I think that’s just the start and that they have the ability to run a lot faster as the year goes on.
