β’ Six different 'Eaters combined to establish eight top-10 marks in program history last weekend.
β’ Deandra Tyler (WT, SP) and Aryel Coats (60m, 200m) both made their way into the top-10 in multiple events.
β’ Tyler and Coats were competing in their first collegiate indoor meet after the cancellation of the 2021 season.

β’ It will also be held at The Podium in Spokane, Washington, for the first time.

β’ Salazar-Gasca's altitude-adjusted time puts her at No. 5 among UCI's all-time leaders.
