Track & Field Earns Five First-Place Finishes at the Seahawk Shootout

Ocean Breeze, N.Y. – Temple women's track and field competed at the Seahawk Shootout on Friday hosted by Wagner University. The Owls left Ocean Breeze with first-place finishes in the 60, 300, 600, and 1600 meter races as well at the 4x400 relay.

In Temple's first race, senior Jimmia McCluskey topped her competition. The Maryland native ran a 7.84 to take first place in the 60 meter dash.

"Out of my three years coaching at Temple, this is the healthiest Jimmia has been," said Forde. "I think today's performance will resonate with her and help to boost her confidence level for the rest of the season.
