JACKSONVILLE – Florida Gators Track and Field competed in day two of the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field East Preliminaries on Thursday, ultimately qualifying three athletes for the NCAA Championship meet in Eugene, Ore. and witnessing one vaunted program record fall.

Highlights
Jumps
In the Women’s Long Jump, the Gators’ two entrants both qualified by delivering the third and fifth-best marks in the field. Anthaya Charlton, the SEC Champion of the Long Jump, delivered a 6.52m [21′ 4.75″] mark that easily situated her inside the top-12 for qualification.

Freshman Alyssa Banales also punched her ticket, courtesy of an all-conditions personal-best of 6.41m [21′ 0.25″]. Banales was one of only two athletes to advance from the second flight, widely outperforming her initial seeding to punch her ticket to the title bout.

All three of Florida’s long jumpers advanced to the national meet, including Malcolm Clemons, who earned a spot in the men’s field on Wednesday.

Sprints/Hurdles
The aforementioned Charlton, less than an hour removed from her qualifying effort in the Long Jump, took to the track for the first round of the 100m dash.

Her 11.05-second performance, a new all-time personal best, not only earned her first place in her heat and a spot in Saturday’s Quarterfinal round, but the honor of being the fastest woman to ever wear the Gator kit.

The program record in the signature sprint event adds to the growing legend of Charlton’s 2025 season. She joins the likes of UF Athletic Hall of Famers Michelle Freeman and Anita Howard as one-time holders of the Gator women’s speed crown.

Her time – 11.05 seconds – shattered the previous record of 11.13, putting twice the margin between her record and its predecessor as exists between the No. 2 and No. 5 marks on Florida’s all-time performance list.

In the 100m Hurdles, Habiba Harris maintained the dominant form she showed at the SEC Championships, leading the field with a 12.80-second performance and automatically qualifying for Saturday’s Quarterfinal.

Gabrielle Matthews also advanced, posting a season-best 23.16 time to take second place in heat one of the 200m first round.

Distance
Hilda Olemomoi, the SEC Silver Medalist in the 10,000m, advanced past the Semifinal round of the 10,000m on Thursday night. Her 32:45.45 time earned her third place in the field, and moved her up to No. 3 in Gator history in the event. She will compete in Saturday’s 5000m semifinal, looking yet again to qualify for the event final in Eugene.

Mid-distance
Sophomore Layla Haynes delivered an impressive all-conditions personal best of 2:03.81 to qualify by time in the 800m first round. Her mark improved on her previous career-best pace by nearly a full second, and propeled her into the No. 10 spot on Florida’s all-time performance list.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (June 5, 2025) – Playing before a large and boisterous Brazil crowd draped in their team’s yellow and green colors, the U.S. Women’s National Team fell to the host nation, 3-0 (25-18, 25-17, 25-19) in Rio de Janeiro.

The U.S. team (0-2) plays its third match in as many days tomorrow, Friday, June 6 at 5 p.m. PDT against Czechia, which lost to Brazil in three sets in its VNL opener.

Get Tickets to Women’s VNL in Arlington, Texas, July 9-13

The U.S. equaled Brazil in aces (four apiece) and stayed close in kills (38-35 Brazil) but could not overcome a 12-4 deficit in blocks. The U.S. recorded 72 digs to 51 for the hosts.

Outside hitter Logan Eggleston led the U.S. with 13 points on a team-high 12 kills with a block. Captain Roni Jones-Perry totaled nine points on seven kills and two aces. Zoe Jarvis recorded five digs.

Opposite Olivia Babcock scored eight points on seven kills and an ace. Middle blocker Anna Dodson added four points with three kills and a block. Setter Ella Powell also scored four points (two kills, one block, one ace). Amber Igiede had two kills and a block; and Logan Lednicky added two kills.

A Dodson block followed by an ace from Babcock gave the U.S. a 14-12 lead in the opening set. The lead was still two points, 16-14, when Brazil finished the set on an 11–2 run. Eggleston led all players with six kills.

Brazil jumped out to a 7-3 lead in the second set, but the U.S. battled back and trailed by just a point, 18-17. After giving up the next point, the U.S. appeared to close the gap back to a point, but Brazil won a challenge and did not give up another point in the set. Jones-Perry paced the U.S. in the set with four points on three kills and an ace.

“We just need to find a little more consistency,” U.S. head coach Erik Sullivan told VBTV after set two. “We have some moments where we’re playing really well and competing at a high level, then we just let down and have these big long runs. We [have to] find that consistency so we’re not giving up points in a row.”

The U.S. trailed by 10 points (20-10) in the third set before going on a 9-2 run to cut the lead to three points, 22-19. Aces from Jones-Perry and Powell, and a kill from middle Amber Igiede keyed the U.S. in that stretch. Eggleston scored a team-high four points in the set (three kills and a block) and Igiede added three points on a pair of kills and a block.

Brazil (2–0) scored the final three points of the third set to secure its second sweep to open VNL play.

Conard Boys Volleyball Sweeps Ridgefield in First Round of State Playoffs.

The still-undefeated Conard boys volleyball team hosted Ridgefield on Wednesday in West Hartford.

Sports reporting is sponsored by Keating Agency Insurance

By Kayleigh Martin and Bridget Dawson

After their 3-0 sweep against 16-seed Ridgefield on Wednesday night, the top-seeded Conard boys volleyball team will continue on to the quarterfinals of the CIAC Class L tournament to face their crosstown West Hartford rival, Hall High School, the No. 9 seed.

Conard will host Hall – which defeated Glastonbury 3-2 in the first round – on Friday, June 6, at 5:30 p.m. The Hall boys volleyball team’s record is 12-8, and Conard’s is 21-0. Kelly Roller and her team continue to celebrate her recent 300th career victory milestone with another big win.

The first set was an incredibly close, nerve-racking set, resulting in a win for Conard. With alternating scores from 21, the set continued all the way up to Conard’s win by two, at 27-25. Tyler Richards and Lucas Hartland were strong at the net, blocking countless Ridgefield hits.

Conard started the second set off strong, leading 6 to 1, 11 to 5, 17 to 7, and eventually 19 to 10. Conard ultimately won the set at an incredible 25-12. Conard dominated the second set and this highlighted some of their best players. In the second set, Conard’s Libero, Jonah White, showed off some incredible defense and leadership in the back row.

The third set started off close, with Conard and Ridgefield tied 4-4, and Ridgefield gained a 7-to-5 advantage early on, however, Conard was able to tie it multiple times at 10-10, 12-12 and 14-14. Conard took a 20-17 lead, and was able to secure a 25-23 victory over Ridgefield, with the help of Keith Carreras whose crucial serves helped secure a victory for the Red Wolves.

Despite the successful sweep, the boys believe they didn’t play their best game. Being undefeated, there is a high standard to reach, and even winning a state tournament game doesn’t suffice. Conard boys volleyball manager Kate Riker said, “The boys can do better, They played well today, but are going to lock for their face-off against Hall”

Captain Tristian McClay agreed. “Although we won, I think we can do much better,” he said, noting that the team holds each other accountable in the best of ways, cheering each other on for the good, and pushing each other to do better.

One of Conard’s other managers, Jayme Kline, explained that, “They have really good team chemistry when they’re down,” and that’s what makes a good team.

The Conard boys volleyball team is ready to take on Hall – a team they swept on May 22 – and hopes to secure a victory in Friday’s matchup. The community is invited to come cheer on the Red Wolves as they take on the Titans!

Reese Atwood served as the hero for Texas softball in Game 1 of the Women’s College World Series national championship series against Texas Tech.

The No. 6-seeded Longhorns are now just one win away from the first softball championship in program history after Atwood took a 3-0 intentional walk pitch from NiJaree Canady and singled to give Texas a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the sixth inning.

Now, the Red Raiders and Canady — who took the blame on herself following the loss — will need to win on June 5 to continue their season at Devon Park in Oklahoma City. Teagan Kavan, who delivered a game in Game 1, will likely be back in the circle to help the Longhorns close the series out.

Mike White says Teagan Kavan ‘could’ pitch tonight

Mac Morgan escapes bases-loaded jam

Mac Morgan loads the bases with one out, but gets Alexa Langeliers to ground out to first base for a force out at home and then NiJaree Canady to shortstop to escape the jam.

That’s two straight days the Red Raiders load the bases in the first inning but cannot push across a run.

Pregame

Mac Morgan vs Tennessee in WCWS semifinal, revisited

NiJaree Canady stats

Texas Tech ace NiJaree Canady has posted a 33-6 record with a 0.94 ERA in 232 innings in 2025. She has struck out 311 hitters this season to just 44 walks.

Canady had seven strikeouts in six innings on Wednesday. She allowed two runs on four hits.

NiJaree Canady gets start for Texas Tech

NiJaree Canady is back in the circle for Texas Tech in the must-win Game 2 of the WCWS championship series. Canady’s one blemish, a misfire on an intentional walk 3-0 pitch to Reese Atwood, was the difference in Game 1.

If Canady can deliver like she has the rest of the postseason, the Red Raiders could be well-positioned to force a Game 3.

Texas Tech starting lineup for WCWS final Game 2

Here’s a look at the Red Raiders’ starting lineup for the win-or-go-home Game 2

Mac Morgan starting pitcher for Texas

Texas is going with Mac Morgan over Teagan Kavan for Game 2 of the WCWS final. Morgan has a 3.23 ERA in 73 2/3 innings this season. Her last appearance was against Tennessee on June 2.

Mike White is likely saving Kavan for if the Longhorns get a lead to close out the championship. If Texas Tech gets ahead, he has a fresh ace for the winner-take-all Game 3.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The Southeastern Conference announced the 2024-25 track and field/cross country Community Service Team on Thursday. The conference names a community service team for each of its 22 league-sponsored sports, highlight athletes from each school who give back to his or her community through superior service efforts.

Brighton Mooney and Logan Patete of both the cross country and track and field programs were named to the Community Service teams as the two representatives for Texas.

Mooney is one of the most active community service members of the program and helped with Longhorn Halloween on campus where athletes interact with the community during trick-or-treat.
