SAN MARCOS & AUSTIN, Texas – Senior Amani Sharif highlighted the Austin Peay State University track and field team's trip to Texas State's Bobcat Invite and Texas' Texas Relays by winning the long jump, Friday, at Mike A. Myers Stadium.

Sharif posted her second-best mark in the long jump this season with a 5.98-meter leap, matching her mark set last time out at Murray State's Margaret Simmons Invite last weekend.

The Governors also set a pair of personal bests at Texas State's event, with Denim Goddard finishing fourth in section b of the long jump with a 5.91-meter jump.

Senior Emma Tucker also had a PR in the shot put, finishing eighth with a 13.5-meter toss.

On the APSU's final day at Texas State's event, Taylin Segree and Mia McGee earned top five placements in the 400-meter. Segree finished as the runner-up in the event with a 53.77 time, just two hundredths of a second off per personal best set during the 2025 Atlantic Sun Conference Outdoor Championships. McGee finished fifth in the event with a time of 54.42, just four tenths of a second off her personal best set at last month's ASUN Indoor Championships. 

Heading to the field, Maelyn Kocik earned a personal best in the triple jump with a 12.41-meter leap to finish fourth in the event. 

Austin Peay returns to the Volunteer State next weekend when it competes in the Tennessee Invitational, Friday-Saturday, at the Tom Black Track at LaPorte Stadium in Knoxville, Tennessee.
