Coming off of the Jesse Owens meet, the BGSU track team will look to finish their regular season with an impressive performance.
Several relays and individuals had season best times and throws at the meet. There were two new Mid-American Conference championship qualifiers for the season end races.
Jade Nolan became an automatic qualifier in a second event this season. The first event she qualified in was the long jump at the Bowling Green State dual event. In the long jump she has a best jump of 19 feet 9 inches.
This past weekend she was able to automatic qualify for the triple jump. She is now ranked ninth in the MAC in the event with a best jump of just over 39 feet. Nolan is the only Falcon to automatically qualify in two events this season up to this point.
Aliyah Gustafson continued her dominant outdoor season in the shot put over the weekend. Gustafson finished third in the event. She had a best throw of 51 feet 11 inches. The throw put Gustafson in first place in the MAC in the event. She has finished in the top five in shot put at every event this year.
Makenzie Wheat has also qualified in the event and finished in sixth place over the weekend in shot put.
Relay teams also performed well at the relays. The 400-meter relay team is now ranked fifth in the MAC with a solid performance over the weekend. They had a best time of 46.28 seconds.
The 400-meter relay team was comprised of Tiera Parker, Arnold Alicia, Kera Lamotte and Dorresha Green. The 1600-meter relay team is comprised of Gabrielle Edwards, Cheyenne Oswald, Natalee Cole and Taylor Rambo.
The 1600-meter relay team finished in 11th place over the weekend with a best run of 3:55.36 seconds. Dorresha Green is moving closer to qualifying in the 100-meter race. She completed her best run time of 11.94 seconds, which is a little over a tenth of a second off of the lowest qualifying time of 11.80 seconds.
Rambo finished with a top ten finish in the 400-meter race with a best time of 55.95 seconds. Raven Porter, Kori Reiser and Kayla Velasquez also finished in the top 10 of the high jump, discus and hammer throw respectively.
The Falcons will compete in two different events over the weekend in the Gina Relays and Ashland Alumni open. The Gina Relays will be held in Hillsdale Michigan while the Ashland Alumni Open will be held at the home track of Ashland University.
