Track and Field had a strong showing at the second indoor meet of the season.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The Southern Miss Track and Field squad continued their winning ways in the second indoor meet of the season at the Samford Invite as five individual events and one relay were won.

On the men's side, Eric Richards took first in the high jump, Patton Little won the mile, and the A team won the 4x400 relay with Kacey Spinks, Trey Johnson, Landon Chalden and DJ Butler.
Head Coach Jon Stuart
"Callie Jones was outstanding with two personal records in the high jump and 60 hurdles. Kameliah Style winning the weight throw with a personal best really gave us some energy to start the meet too. We had good performances across all event areas, so it was a great tune up before heading to Houston in two weeks."
