Coyote Women’s Track and Field headed out to Claremont to compete in the Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Rossi Relays on Feb. 27.

The Coyotes competed in multiple activities throughout the course of the day, placing high in many categories.

Each activity is broken down into sections that are categorized by top  athletes to lowest ranking athletes.

Each Coyote has two places; one where they placed in the section they participated in and the second where they placed overall out of all the other athletes in the activity.

One of the first activities to take place was the 100-meters. The Coyotes ran in the fourth, sixth, and seventh sections for the 100.

In the 4×100 relay, Yanitza Padfeld, Tiana Watson, Jones and Matthews ran in section two. The ladies placed first for section two and seventh in all the teams that ran the 4×100 relay.

Moving away from races, next up was the shot put, discus and javelin. Rather than sections, the activities are categorized into flights based on the athletes abilities.

Kassandra Rico-Alvarez did well in shot put. She placed sixth in flight two and 21st overall, her throw at 32 feet, 10 inches. While Samone Everett, who threw in the third flight, placed third in her flight and 19th overall. Everett’s throw measured 33 feet.
