LSU not only maintained its position atop the National TFRI, but strengthened its hold on the No. 1 spot. The Tigers received three different national-leading efforts this past weekend at the LSU Alumni Gold, headlined by
JuVaughn Harrison’s otherworldly long jump of 8.44m (27-8¼) that made him the sixth-best performer in collegiate history. Not to be outdone,
Noah Williams turned one lap in 44.30 to equal the 12th-fastest performer in collegiate history, while
Sean Burrell topped the 400H list at 49.12. Other notable performances were turned in by
Eric Edwards Jr. in the 110H (No. 5, 13.46),
Sean Dixon-Bodie in the triple jump (No. 7, 16.35m/53-7¾), as well as the 4×100 relay team (No. 2, 38.58).
LSU remained No. 1 for the second week in a row and the third time this season. The Tigers were aided by
Terrance Laird, who turned in the third-fastest mark over 100 meters on the Descending Order List at 10.06 this past weekend at the Boots Garland Invitational. Not to be outdone,
Sean Burrell went 50.15 for what is now the seventh-fastest mark this season.
Southern California jumped two spots from No. 4 to No. 2 after a strong weekend. The Trojans added or improved two national top-15 marks to their ledger at the Long Beach Invitational – none bigger than
McKay Johnson’s 19.95m (65-5½) heave in the shot put that ranks him fourth on the seasonal chart. Johnson owns one of seven national top-10 marks by USC.
