NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. – The Slippery Rock University women's track and field team recorded 18 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference qualifying marks and six event wins at the Westminster Invitational Saturday at Westminster College.

SRU won two of the throwing events with Sarah Corrie winning the shot put with a toss of 13.52 meters and Tiffany Jolayemi winning the hammer with a throw of 47.51 meters. Olivia Heckman also hit the PSAC standard in the shot put with a sixth place finish and a toss of 11.93 meters. The top efforts in the throws were rounded out by Skylar Sherry, who placed second in the javelin with a PSAC qualifying mark of 40.23 meters.
 
Aleks Brozeski claimed the top spot in the triple jump to give SRU three wins in the field events. Her leap of 11.31 meters met the PSAC standard, as did Abby Williamson's fourth place mark of 10.76 meters.

The final win on the track came in the 4x100-meter relay, where Samantha Gilbert, Haley Morgan, Regan Johnson and Thai-Lin Pierce teamed up to post a time of 48.02 seconds.
