MANHATTAN, Kan. – The Oklahoma men's and women's track and field team closed out the Steve Miller Invitational hosted by Kansas State on Friday night at the Cliff Rovelto Indoor Track, highlighted by school record breaking performances from Olivia Lueking and Abby Jepchirchir.
Olivia Lueking kicked off the meet with a personal-best clearance of 4.52m (14'10") to break the school record, which she previously set at the Red Raider Invitational on Jan. 24. Lueking also secured the Steve Miller Invitational record. The mark is No. 1 in the SEC and No. 6 in the NCAA so far this season.
Abby Jepchirchir raced in the women's 800-meter run Friday night, breaking the 21-year-old school record set in 2004 with a 2:05.75 time. Jepchirchir finished third overall in the event but was the first collegian to cross the line.
In the women's weight throw, Kennedy Clarke posted a personal-best mark of 20.41m (66'1.50") for second place. With this toss, Clarke improves her position at No. 5 on OU's all-time performance list and climbs to a No. 6-ranking in the SEC.
Tucker Smith found success in the men's shot put, winning the event with a 19.22m (63'0.75") toss to break the Cliff Rovelto Indoor track facility record.
Breaking into OU's top-ten performance list, Austin Kiser ran a career-best 7.84 in the 60-meter hurdles finals for third place. Kiser's time is No. 9 in Oklahoma history.
Amanda Obijiaku had a historical day. Earning two PRs, she registered 7.32 in the 60-meter final and 23.69 in the 200m final for the eighth and 10th-best times in OU history.
The Sooners collected five more event titles from Tyson Ritz (high jump), Logan Seger (mile), Samuel Toili (600 yard), Koryee Wyatt (60-meter dash) and Paige Low (shot put).
