WOMEN'S TRACK HIGHLIGHTS

• Jayde Charlton finished first in both the 100 and 200. Charlton led a sweep of the top three spots in the 100 after running 11.76. Gianna Scruggs placed second in 11.98 while Daysha Ford was third with the exact same time. Charlton ran 24.33 to win the 200 with Scrugg placing third in 25.38.

MEN'S FIELD HIGHLIGHTS
