STARKVILLE – The final day of the Al Schmidt Bulldog Relays ended with a bang for the Mississippi State track and field program. MSU saw six first-place finishes and 28 top-five finishes. Thirteen Bulldogs also set new personal bests, and JavU's DJ Jónsson, Tyriq Horsford and Franck DiSanza swept the top three spots on the men's side.

Navasky Anderson, Ava Weems and Mary Beth Woodward each ran to new personal bests in the men's and women's 1500-meter race, respectively

Teammates Jeremiah Pierce and Jhordyn Stallworth extended their shot put throws, en route to first-place finishes
Both Jada Grant and Aley Woodberry both extended their women's long jump marks
Jordan Barrow shrunk his time in the men's 100-meter dash
Trent Zelden extended his mark in the men's javelin
Rosealee Cooper and Shayla Felder shortened their time in the women's 200-meter race, finishing first and second, respectively. Teammate Okheme Moore also set a new personal best in the men's race

Cooper (women's 200m), Stallworth (women's shot put), Woodberry (women's long jump), Terry Smith, Jr. (men's 110m hurdles), Pierce (men's shot put), Safir Scott (men's long jump) and Jónsson (men's javelin) each recorded a first-place finish for the Maroon and White.
