LIVE RESULTS RECORD BOOK

SMU Track and Field begins the outdoor season at the Longhorn Invite scheduled for Saturday, March 6 from Myers Stadium in Austin.

In their first outdoor event since the 2019 NCAA Championships, the Mustangs head to Austin for the Longhorn Invite with the first Mustang event starting at noon and continuing into the night ending at 9:00 p.m.

Along with SMU and hosts, Texas, the field includes Baylor, Incarnate Word, Iowa State, Oklahoma State, Prairie View A&M, Rice, Sam Houston State, South Dakota, UTRGV, Texas Southern, West Virginia.

Despite not having an outdoor season last year, several current Mustangs hold program records and top-10 SMU marks.

Chika Iwuamadi set the program record in the 400m during her freshman season with a time of 52.70. Ashton Woods and Chelsea Francis were a part of the fastest 4x400 time back in 2019. Francis has SMU's second best mark in both the 100m and the 200m. She advanced to the NCAA Championships in 2019 in the 100m.

Francis, Iwuamadi and Woods all advanced to the NCAA Prelims in 2019, Francis in both the 100m and 200m, Iwuamadi in the 400m and Woods in the 400m hurdles. Woods advanced to the final of the 400 hurdles before narrowly missing a spot in the NCAA Championships.

In the last AAC Outdoor Championships, the Mustangs vaulted up the leaderboard on the final day posting eight Sunday golds to finish in third. Current Mustangs, Cassie Ackemann, Atipa Mabonga, Chelsea Francis, Chika Iwuamadi and Ashton Woods all scored points for the Mustangs during the Championships.
