Al Schmidt Bulldog Relays Begin with Thursday’s Hammer Throw
March 24, 2022 | Track & Field
STARKVILLE – The Mississippi State track and field program started its 2022 outdoor campaign Thursday afternoon with the beginning of the Al Schmidt Bulldog Relays. The meet kicked off with the men's and women's hammer throw, featuring MSU's Francesca Chambers, Daniel Pepper and Trent Zelden. Both Pepper and Zelden each set new personal bests, and Pepper's throw became the men's program's second-best throw for the event.
The meet picks back up Friday at noon with the men's and women's discus. First gun for the track events is slated for 3 p.m. with the 4x800m relay.
MSU's heralded "JavU" corps is set to open Saturday's action at 11 a.m. with the women's javelin, followed by the men's session at 2:30 later that afternoon. The first track event is scheduled for 11:55 that morning.
MSU will welcome teams from Alabama State, Belhaven, Central Arkansas, Jackson State, Mississippi College, Mississippi Valley, Missouri-St. Louis, Mobile, North Alabama, Samford, SE Louisiana, Southern Miss, UAB, West Alabama, West Florida and William Carey.
