Three months after hoisting the Southland Conference Indoor Track and Field Championship trophy for the first time ever, history repeated itself for Sakari Famous and her McNeese University Women’s Track & Field teammates as they recorded a school-record 189 points to win the Outdoor Championship, also the first in school history.
The 189 points also ranks as the fourth-most in Southland Conference championship history, tying it with Texas-Arlington (2001) while standing as the most ever among any current league team.
Famous was the lone Gold Medal winner on Day-Two of the Championships for McNesse in the Women’s High Jump with a top leap of 1.74m or 5-feet 8.5-inches.
