SACRAMENTO, Calif. – The Texas Tech women completed day two of the NCAA West First Round Thursday evening at Hornet Stadium.
Follow Along Demisha Roswell was the first Tech sprinter to advance to Saturday's quarterfinals as she ran a 13.04 (0.5) in the 100 hurdles. Her time was 5th overall.
Well after the 100m was completed, officials went back and determined that Serena Clark's time of 11.50 (-0.1) would come down to the thousandths of seconds (.497), enough to secure her the final spot at 23rd, tied with another sprinter from Southern Illinois.
Malin Smith gave a valiant effort in the shot put, missing the cut by three spots. Smith set a new PB twice by nearly two feet as her final throw registered in at 16.95m (55-7 ½). Smith still has the discus left which takes place Saturday.
Sylvia Schulz secured a finals lane this weekend in the 400 hurdles. Schulz finished 2nd in her heat running a time of 57.95.
Up Next
The men wrap up their final day of the week competing tomorrow starting at 1 p.m. with Devin Roberson and Jacob Mechler in the discus.
