The four-by-200-meter relay team of sophomores A’Iesha IrvinMuhammad, Alexandria Isom and Tahtyana Peer and freshman Lydia Harold broke the school record in the event, which had stood since the Drake Relays on April 27, 2012. The group took eighth place with a time of 1:35.98 to break the previous record of 1:36.68. The Huskies also participated at the Lions Invitational and the Hillsdale Relays over the weekend. Freshman Ashanti Hutton and sophomore Tyra Bickham took first place in the 400-meter dash (56.55 seconds) dash and discus (47.57 meters), respectively, at the Lions Invitational. The Huskies totaled 10 top-five finishes and 13 top-10 finishes at the Lions Invitational. At the Hillsdale Relays, senior Jamie Burr, junior Alison Olson and freshman Lorena Martin finished in the top-20 in the 800-meter run. Burr came in 12th place (2:12.47), Olson came in 14th place (2:13.10) and Martin broke her personal record in the event as she came in 18th place (2:15.30).
