The men’s track team won
five first-place medals and set six provisional NCAA marks Saturday

was the first meet of the spring season.
Two-time All-American Michael Frater and Jabari Fields set marks
in the 60-meter dash. Frater won the race in 6.69 seconds, passing
Fields, who finished in 6.72 seconds. All-Americans Aundre Edwards
and Cleavon Dillon each received provisional marks in the long jump.
Jerry Harris set marks in both the 400 meters and the 4x400 yard
relay team.
Brandal Lawrence was the meet’s top triple jumper with a jump
of 15.39 meters.
Last season, the Frogs only recorded two provisional marks in Oklahoma.
On the women’s team, in the 3000-meter run, Mary Kinyanjui
finished first, Katrina Zielinski finished second and Alayne Thompson
finished third.
The Frogs second meet of the season will be Saturday at the Houston
