LA JOLLA, Calif. – The Navy track and field team opened up the 2022 outdoor campaign at the UC San Diego Collegiate Challenge at Triton Track & Field Stadium in La Jolla, Calif. The Midshipmen registered 25 IC4A / ECAC qualifying times / marks in the first outdoor meet of the 2022 season.
 
"We did some good things and there were some things we need to work on," Director of Navy Track and Field / Cross Country Jamie Cook said. "It was a long day of travel yesterday, but we had to come out and get it done today. I thought there were some pretty good performances. Braden Presser going over 70 in the jav was awesome. We had some good performances in the events we hadn't done yet. We tried to come out and do the long hurdles and the 4x1 and the long throws. It was good to get there and jump outside. It was good to do some things on an outdoor track that we haven't been able to do yet since we just wrapped up the indoor season. All in all, it was a good day."
 
The Mids tallied 18 IC4A qualifying times / marks on the men's side, while the women recorded seven ECAC qualifiers.
 
Sethan Hollier (Baton Rouge, La.) tallied a pair of IC4A qualifying times in the 100m (10.90) and 200m (21.40). Jay Evans (Cusseta, Ga.) and Jacques Guillaume (Jacksonville, Fla.) also registered qualifying times in the 200m. Guillaume notched a qualifying time of 48.62 in the 400m.

Katie Halbert (Keller, Texas) crossed the finish line in the 100m hurdles with an ECAC time of 14.11, while Annie Taylor (Nashville, Tenn.) posted a qualifying time of 1:02.87 in the 400m hurdles.
 
The men's 4x100m relay team of Hollier, Caden Dailey (Centreville, Va.), Evans, and Vick combined for an IC4A time of 41.46.
