LEVELLAND, Texas  — The Oklahoma Panhandle State women's track & field squad concluded its indoor season at South Plains College on Saturday, where the Aggies set four school records and took home one event win.
 
School Records Set The win came from Carolina Valenzuela in the mile, who took first out of five with a PR and school-record performance of 5:41.28. Shania Chavez and Lillyan Gerow also ran in the race, finishing neck-and-neck just above 6:01.00.
 
In the 60-meter prelims, Ashlynn Perez broke her own program record by coming in at 7.99 seconds. The sprinter finished fifth in the finals with a time of 8.09 seconds. Akia Bowens also made finals, crossing in 8.46 seconds.
 
Brittney Carrasco demolished her school record in the weight throw by nearly a full meter, closing with a distance of 13.03 meters. Meanwhile, Avery Brown led the Aggies in the shot put by posting a mark of 9.42 meters.
 
Ki'Anna Jones notched a PR and came within 0.5 seconds of the school record in the 600-meters by finishing in 1:42.66.
 
Jones joined Valenzuela, Chavez and Gerow as Aggies who also competed in the 800-meters, where Valenzuela broke her own record with a time 2:33.28 to grab seventh of 14 runners. Jones took eighth at 2:34.13, and Chavez nabbed a spot in the top 10.
 
Head coach Cyrus Hall highlighted Jones' performances, noting that he has set a high standard for the runner and that Jones came through with "a really good day."
 
Paizlie Reyna-Mata set a personal record in the 800-meters with a mark of 26.58 seconds to take fifth of eight runners. Behind Reyna-Mata were Breyanna Kemp and Perez, bunching up under 27.00 seconds to take sixth and seventh, respectively.
 
Neo Trim participated in the triple jump for the first time, notching a top mark of 9.38 meters.  
 
Coach Hall's Thoughts: "I'm pretty happy with how today went. The women are bummed out, we didn't have anybody qualify for Nationals this year, indoors. Some of that's the training, I changed the training this year. I'm trying to do some different things with them to hopefully get a bigger pop outdoors."
 
"We ran pretty well today, I think we're getting really close to being where we want to be, so I wouldn't be surprised if first outdoor meet, second outdoor meet, we start to look really good. And we looked good today."
 
What's up next: The Aggies are scheduled to begin their outdoor campaign on March 12 in Coffeyville, Kansas.
