SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Carsyn Spurgeon led the Golden Hurricane as TU's highest finisher with a 13th-place showing in the long jump, as the Tulsa track and field squad completed day one of the NCAA West Preliminary Rounds late Thursday night.
Spurgeon leapt 6.08 meters (19-11.50 feet), missing out on qualifying for the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Austin, Texas, by one spot, which translated to less than an inch. Despite not qualifying, Spurgeon made the most of her sophomore season, shattering both her personal and the TU school records this year in the event.
