Blazing A trail - Brimlett & McCammon Command OVC Heptathlon
5/11/2017 10:08:00 PM | Women's Track and Field
The Murray State women's track & field completed day one of the OVC Outdoor Track & Field Championship with some big performances in the Heptathlon at Choccolocco Park in Oxford, Alabama.
MSU's Jabreuna Brimlett and Taylor McCammon made a great showing in the first day of the Heptathlon as they held down the top spot and third place. They finished first and third in the 100 meter hurdles with times of 13.64 and 14.27. After McCammon placed sixth and Brimlett seventh in the high jump, they came back in the shot put where Brimlett placed second and McCammon third. The final event of the first day was the 200 meter run where Brimlett ran a time of 24.49 for second place and McCammon posted a time of 26.33 for a spot in fifth place.
So the Racer sophomore Brimlett is the overnight leader in the multi-event Heptathlon with the long jump, javelin and 800 meter run to come on Friday. She has 3,128 points through four of the seven events, ahead of SIUE's Lauren White (3,080), Cyra Beard of Tennessee State (3,025) and teammate McCammon at 2,955.
Brimlett can become Murray State's first champion of the OVC
Heptathlon if she can take it all the way on Friday. The OVC is staging its ninth Heptathlon since they revived the competition in 2014. The OVC also staged it from 1982-86.
Â
The final event of the first at the OVC Outdoors was the 10,000 meter run, where Meagan Smith placed 11th with a time of 38:27 after leading the race for four miles. Emily Flaherty placed 17th with a time of 39:52. The Racers third competitor was a 19th place finish from Carolina Grogan at 40:10.
Â
In the hammer throw, Rachel Gootee was MSU's top finisher with a spot in 16th place on a throw of 127-feet.
