Track and Field Finishes with 11 Top-Five Performances Sunday

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – University of Memphis track and field teams ended Sunday's USA Invitational with 11 top-five performances.

The meet was hosted by the University of South Alabama and was held at the Birmingham CrossPlex. This was the first of two meets the Tigers will compete in at that location, with the next being the American Athletic Conference Championship at the end of the month.

DeeNia McMiller took home a first-place win in the women's shot put (15.33m) and followed with a silver in the weight throw (21.86m). This mark is just below her one at the previous meet, which still marks her 11th in the nation in the event.
