Murray State track and field close weekend at Eastern Kentucky.

Murray State track and field has five event winners at Rick Erdmann Twilight hosted by Eastern Kentucky University, Saturday.

Faith Bostick and Brooke Probst won the 100m dash and high jump, respectively, on the first day.

Amyah Davis won the 100m hurdles with a time of 14.18 seconds before Kayla Bell won the 400m dash with a time of 54. 68 seconds, breaking the meet record (55.68) by almost a second.

Jenna Pauly took the Racers final event championship in the long jump with a 5.77m mark.

"Whenever you can come away with some event wins you know you're on the right path to better things down the road," said head coach Adam Kiesler.

Due to the weather, the second day last longer than scheduled.

"The athletes overcame the wind and weather and came away with some good marks," said Kiesler. "The energy was still high which we always preach no matter the situation."

The Racers will visit Kentucky for the Jim Green Invitational, next week, for their final meet before the Missouri Valley Conference Championship.
