Sophomore Tafada Wright led the Bulldog women with a fourth-place finish in the hammer throw with a personal-record distance of 49.48m (162' 4") on her second attempt. Wright improved her personal-best distance set in 2023 by over four feet. Her second attempt was two feet more than her first attempt.

Freshman Megan Womack also set a personal record with a distance of 44.63m (146-5.0) earned on her third attempt. Womack improved her mark by nearly 13 feet since her previous personal best set last week at the Hurricane Invitational.

Rickea Atkins set a personal best in her first outdoor meet of the season with a distance of 35.96m (118-0). It marked Atkins' second-consecutive year that she improved her mark at the Mike Sanders Track and Field Complex.
