Two School Records Fall on First Day of UNM Team Open
January 27, 2023 | Women's Indoor Track
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - The UC Irvine women's indoor track & field team broke two school records on the first day of the UNM Team Open Friday at the Albuquerque Convention Center.
Β
In the long jump, sophomore transfer Jolie Robinson shattered a 14-year old standard with a leap of 19-02 (5.84m). Robinson, who came in sixth overall, had an impressive series as she reached at least 18 feet on all six attempts with her record-breaking distance coming on her third jump. She is the first Anteater to eclipse the 19-foot mark in indoor competition. Robinson also matched her season best in the high jump at 5-01.25.
Β
Sophomore Reyna Johnson added a top-20 showing in the long jump and improved her No. 3 mark in program history with a personal-best 18-05 (5.61m).
Β
On the track, graduate student Emma McCarthy made her way to the top of UCI's all-time charts in the 600m. McCarthy clocked a program-best 1:33.74 to beat the previous record of 1:33.93 that was set by Crystal Lizaola in 2017. McCarthy claimed runner-up honors in the race. Freshman Reina Kabbara also had a sixth-place finish with her time of 1:38.35 ranking seventh in school history.
Β
Junior Aryel Coats established a lifetime-best 24.91 in the 200m to move up to No. 4 among the Anteaters' all-time leaders.
Β
In the 400m, freshman Lauren Aquino took second overall (58.91), while classmate Sienna Frederiksen was fourth (59.33).
Β
Sophomore Maggie Sczupak made her indoor debut in the 3000m, crossing the finish line in an altitude-adjusted time of 10:43.80.
Β
Sophomore Deandra Tyler led six 'Eaters in the weight throw with a toss of 52-06.5. Freshman DeAna Davis cracked UC Irvine's all-time top-10 in her first collegiate meet with a best of 45-10.75.
Β
The Anteaters return to the Albuquerque Convention Center tomorrow for the second and final day of the UNM Team Open.
