TCU Track & Field Dominates At Arizona Meet
The Horned Frogs really want smoke with anybody. The TCU athletes continue to put Track and Field program on the map. There were a lot of surprising performances at the Jim Click Shootout in Tucson, Arizona. The schools competing were Air Force, Arizona, Iowa, Kansas State, TCU, and Wisconsin. The Horned Frogs definitely showed them what they were about.
Starting off the day were Tosin Alao and Emma Seetoo in the women's long jump. The pair placed first and second, respectively. Both also recorded season bests. Alao's winning jump was 6.22m (20-5.0), and Seetoo's 2nd place jump was 5.97m (19-7.0).
Adding to TCU's great day of jumps, Grace Anigbata and Khyasia Caldwell finished first and second, respectively, in the triple jump. In Anigbata's outdoor debut for the Horned Frogs, she jumped 13.27m (43-6.50) for the win, while Caldwell placed second with her mark of 12.36m (40-6.75).
