Ten personal bests were produced for the Mustangs across this weekend's events in Azusa and Long Beach – four of which were top-10 SMU performances. Head Coach A'Havahla Haynes said this weekend provided learning moments as well as great performances. 

"It was another good weekend of individual performances in the books," Haynes said. 

Gabriella Ayiteyfio is now third in the AAC for the Heptathlon after scoring a personal best of 5,226 at the Bryan Clay Invitational– now sixth in SMU history books. She ran 14.36 in the 100-meter hurdles, 2:24.82 in the 800, and 24.96 in the 200. She jumped 1.61 meters in the high jump and 5.27 meters in the long jump. Ayiteyfio also threw 12.25 meters in the shot put and 34.42 meters in the javelin. 

Olivia Dobson also had some personal bests in the Heptathlon, including a 14.36 second 100-meter hurdles – now ninth in SMU history – and a 25.75 second 200-meter race. 

In the 5,000, Kaitlyn Gearin ran a season best of 16:30.88 -- putting her fourth in the conference. Flora Tissier is sixth in the AAC with a PR of 16:39.12. Ellie Grammas had a PR of 4:40.51 in the 1,500. 

Over in Long Beach, the personal bests continued. Both Nea Sanders and Kirin Chacchia had PR performances in the 100-meter hurdles. Sanders is fourth in the conference with her time of 13.54 and Chacchia put herself in sixth in the SMU record books with 14.16. Chacchia also had a PR in the 400-meter hurdles of 1:01.31, which is the eighth fastest by an SMU athlete and fourth in the conference. 

In the 400, Whitney Williams placed third with a season best race of 54.24, and Camryn McPhaul ran a PR of 56.23 for 11th. Williams also had a PR of 24.27 in the 200. 

The Mustangs have one more weekend on deck before the championship season begins. They'll compete at the Texas Invitational on April 26th and 27th.
