ALUMNI MUSTER FINAL RESULTS
Â
BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Baylor pole vaulter Molly Haywood kept her near-unblemished record intact and set the meet and facility records on Saturday at the Texas A&M Alumni Muster at E.B. Cushing Stadium.
Â
After clearing the 14-6 bar on her final attempt, Haywood was the only one of the 23 competitors to go over 14-10 ¾, which tied Arkansas' Nastassja Campbell's facility record and broke the meet record of 14-9 ½ set by teammate Tenly Kuhn a year ago.
Â
Kuhn finished third at 14-6, with senior teammate Alencia Lentz fifth at 14-1 ¼, continuing a trend that has Baylor's vault crew ranked as the second-best in the event nationally.
Â
On the men's side, junior Parker Brannon surpassed his previous career best by more than four inches and finished third in the pole vault at 17-3.
Â
"Super happy for Parker that he finally got a 17-foot jump," Baylor coach Michael Ford said. "He's been working hard in practice, and he had some good attempts at 17-7.That definitely puts him on the region list, and he could potentially score at conference. Molly had had another good meet. She went for it at 15-2 and had some good attempts. But overall, she got another win and set the meet and facility records."
Â
Serafima Lucero picked up another win in the 400-meter hurdles, running a time of 57.21, just six hundredths of a second off the meet record.
Â
Baylor also got top-three performances from Ruth Kimeli in the 1,500 meters, second place with a career PR of 4:21.89; Kingston Williams in the long jump (3rd, 23-10 ¼); Demario Prince, runner-up in the 110-meter hurdles, 13.57; Tiriah Kelley, 3rd in the 100 meters, 11.27; Eva Jacobsen, 2nd in the 3,000=meter steeplechase with a PR time of 10:43.42; and Ella Perry, 3rd in the 5,000 meters on Friday night, 17:22.4. Â
Â
Freshman sprinters Jada Edwards and Alyssa Jones added career PRs in the 400 meters at 53.55 and 53.92.
Two former Baylor All-Americans also had event wins, with current assistant coach Aaliyah Miller winning the women's 800 meters with a season-best and meet-record time of 2:03.10 and Trayvon Bromell taking the men's 100 meters in 10.06.
Â
After a week off, Baylor will compete in the Big 12 Championships May 14-16 in Tucson, Ariz.
