BATON ROUGE, La. - The McNeese Track and Field program saw 13 athletes earn recognition on the Louisiana Sports Writers Association (LSWA) All-Louisiana Track and Field teams.

A panel of track media/communications members were chosen to select the award winners for both the men and women's squads. The list of times were compiled from the reported times of the Track & Field Results Reporting System of athletes to recognize the best times within Louisiana.

Mariah Lee, a redshirt senior, was the lone McNeese athlete to earn All-Louisiana First Team recognition in the women's hammer throw with a mark of 193'-5" at the Warhawk Classic. Her mark led the state by three-and-a-half feet.

Four Pokes were named to the second team, led off by Kevin Kimaiyo (sophomore) with a time of 9:37.80 in the 3,000m steeplechase. Two others were named to All-Louisiana teams in the steeplechase with freshman Jeny Barcenas earning second-team recognition with a mark of 10:30.48 and junior Marta Pascoa making the third-team at 10:43.68.

Two other members on the second-team to earn recognition were Southland conference runner-up Sakari Famous (redshirt senior) in the high jump at 5-11.5 and SLC champion Morgan Talley (graduate student) in the heptathlon at the Southland Outdoor Championships with a total 5204 points.

Eight members of the squad were named to the All-Louisiana Third Team consisting of freshman Alex Martin (1:49.07, 800m), juniors Omer El-Fadl (3:45.71, 1500m), Gilbert Kimutai (31:08.11, 10,000m), Jaden Powell (51.31s, 400m hurdles), Marcus Francis (47-5.75, shot put), sophomore Jaslyn Russell (47-5.75, shot put), and senior Blanche Beard (164-5, javelin).
