Southern Miss competes in Conference USA Outdoor Championships

The Southern Miss track and field teams traveled to Charlotte, North Carolina to compete in the Conference USA outdoor championships held from May 9-12. Seven Golden Eagles walked away champions in their events.

“We had a very good Championship meet,” head coach Jon Stuart said. “I was very proud of the way our kids competed; they competed as hard as they could for five days, and when you come away with seven champions, that’s a pretty good result.”

In the women’s contests sophomore Callie Jones finished the heptathlon with 5,261 points earning the gold medal. Jones also placed first in the javelin with a mark of 51.
