Lopes return to NAU for 2nd of 3 trips in 2019
The Grand Canyon track and field team returns to Northern Arizona on Friday and Saturday for the Mountain T's Invite.
The Lopes are coming off a men's team win and a women's runner-up finish at the New Mexico Team Challenge last weekend.
Â
GCU redshirt freshman Trey Johnson won the long jump at the New Mexico Team Challenge in his collegiate debut and senior Chris Linnin Jr. broke the school record in the high jump. Johnson's jump of 7.37 meters ranks second in the WAC.
Â
The Lopes take five conference-leading marks into the meet.
Â
Sophomore Knowledge Omovoh holds the WAC's top mark in the 400-meter dash at 55.85 seconds and sophomore Alexa Hokanson ranks first in the WAC in the 800 with an altitude-adjusted time of 2 minutes 12.64 seconds.
Â
Senior hurdlers William Winfield IV and Shanice Lewis rank first in the WAC in the 60-meter hurdles with 8.08 and 8.50 times, respectively.
Â
Lewis also ranks first in the WAC in the long jump, entering the weekend with her 5.82-meter jump at the Air Force Team Challenge two weeks ago.
GCU will have athletes compete in their first heptathlon and pentathlon of the season on Friday. Grant Carpenter, coming off a heptathlon and decathlon "double" in 2018, joins Adam Turner, Karl Zuber and James Koch in the heptathlon. Redshirt senior Sydney Madrid, along with Niki Xydona, Rae Queener and Symone Wright-Flowers, will compete in the pentathlon.
Â
The Lopes will face a handful of programs including Arizona State, Stanford, UC Riverside, Southern Utah and host NAU.
