In case you missed it — 37 Trojans punched their ticket to the final round of the NCAA Championships at the NCAA West Preliminaries. USC track and field will now prepare to head to Eugene, Oregon to compete amongst the best in the nation during the four-day event.
The men's 4x100m relay team of Travis Williams, Max Thomas, Jacob Andrews and Johnnie Blockburger got the running portion started in style when they won their heat with a season-best and fastest time of the day of 38.76 to automatically advance to the NCAA Championships in the event. The quartet's time was the seventh-fastest 4x100m relay time in USC history.
Temi Ojora finished second in the triple jump with a school-record leap of 45-7.25 to automatically advance to the NCAA Championships in the event. Her jump broke the previous USC record of 45-5.25 set by Wendy Brown in 1988.
