Senior breaks program and meet record for weight throw in Louisiana

Senior Taylor Scaife stole the spotlight by setting a meet and program record in the weight throw on Friday as the Cougars competing in the Lousiana State Twilight.

Scaife earned her fourth first-place finish this season when she surpassed 22.00m (72-2.00) on three of her five attempts, with her best throw coming on her third toss as she earned a mark of 22.89m (75-01.25).

The senior broke her own record that she established last season.

The toss is the second-best toss amongst all college athletes this season, and it also shattered the previous Carl Maddox Fieldhouse record.
