WACO, Texas – The Oklahoma men's and women's track and field team recorded top marks in program history Saturday at the Michael Johnson Invitational, held at the Clyde Hart Track & Field Stadium. The Sooners totaled seven top-10 marks on OU's all-time performance list, three showings in the top-16 of the NCAA and five event titles.

Kassidy Sani opened the meet with a win in the women's javelin, registering a career-best 49.23m (161'6.00") throw for the No. 7 spot on OU's all-time performance list.

Danny Doheny kicked off his outdoor campaign with an improvement of over 6 meters to his career high set last year. He registered 69.12m (226'9.00") for fourth and climbed six spots to No. 3 in Oklahoma history.

Tying his previous mark set at Texas Relays (16.92m (55'6.25")), this time wind-legal, BJ Green took the men's triple jump title. He maintains his position at No. 1 in the nation and the SEC this outdoor season and improves his standing at No. 2 in Oklahoma outdoor history.

The men's shot put group put on an excellent showing Saturday evening. Ralford Mullings pulled away with the win, tossing a career-high 19.56m (63'10.25"), which ranks seventh in the nation and second in the SEC. With this mark, he now sits No. 4 on OU's all-time list. Tucker Smith followed closely in second place with a 19.46m (63'10.25") throw, ranking eighth in the NCAA, third in the SEC and fifth in Oklahoma history. Will Dibo added a PB of his own, 18.69m (61'4.00"), for the eight-best mark ever recorded by a Sooner.

In the women's triple jump, Agur Dwol claimed her spot at No. 3 on OU's all-time performance list with a wind-legal 13.60m (44'7.50"), also taking the event title. Teammate Eunice Ilunga Mbuyi earned the second-best finish by a collegian with a 13.14m (43'1.50") leap.

Three sprints athletes claimed personal records for top finishes in their respective events. Austin Kiser posted 13.88 in the men's 110-meter hurdles final for sixth place overall and fourth by a collegian. Jenna James raced to 53.39 in the women's 400m, clocking 53.39 for the third-best time by a collegian. On the men's side, Samuel Toili secured 46.16 in the 400-meter dash for fourth place.

Shot put duo of Tuane Silver and Paige Low tossed season bests for third and fourth place, respectively. Silver recorded 16.38m (53'9.00") and Low 16.37m (53'9.00").
