MOBILE, Ala. (March 12, 2022) – The Spring Hill College (SHC) women and men's Track & Field programs continued to turn in strong efforts in the 2022 outdoor season by turning in 16 personal best University of South Alabama (USA) Invitational on Friday and Saturday at Jaguar Track.

"We had some great efforts Friday and Saturday at USA," said SHC head coach Craig McVey. "Saturday was bitterly cold and windier than last week, so a huge amount of credit goes to both squads. You don't set a personal best on a day like Saturday, but we had a bunch."

McVey was proud of the grittiness his team showed him this weekend. "To be out there as long as we were with the extreme temperatures and winds over 20 mph all day and to stay engaged and focused on making progress from week one was a challenge, but everyone gets it."

The Badger head coach praised his teams for their improvements "What a great second meet!" he said. "We can't afford to let one opportunity to compete slip through our fingers and Monday we'll be right back to work to continue to get ready for our conference meet. We have enough days, but we have to use them well."
