OXFORD, Miss. -- Sophomore Neal Tisher broke her own school record in the pole vault Saturday at the Ole Miss Invitational with a mark of 4.20m (13-09.25) to lead 13 titles for the host Rebels.

Tisher broke her previous record of 4.07m (13-04.25) set last weekend at the Pepsi Relays in Gainesville, Fla.

"We had a phenomenal day today, with a lot of outstanding performances in the distances, sprints hurdles, jumps and throws. They were all solid," said head coach Joe Walker. "This was a huge meet, and it ran on time. It was a wonderful day at Ole Miss for track and field."

The 200m dash belonged to Ole Miss. Jonathan Juin prevailed among the men with the Rebels' top time since 2001 at 20.67, and Jasmine Williams grabbed the women's title with a time of 23.85.

Ole Miss took the top two positions in the men's long jump. Caleb Lee posted the Rebels' highest mark since 2008 with a jump of 7.75m (25-05.25), while Ricky Robertson followed with a jump of 7.58m (24-10.50).

The Rebel men also placed 1-2 in the 100m. Mike Granger recorded the team's best time in three years at 10.22, while Juin finished second with a time of 10.32.

In the men's 400m hurdles, Lee Ellis Moore missed his own school-record time by just 0.36, as he finished first with a time of 49.86. Carson Blanks placed second with a time of 51.18.

The top two spots in the women's 400m hurdles were also Rebels. Sofie Persson topped the field with a time of 58.01, and teammate Sofia Hellberg-Jonsen was just behind her at 59.90.

The Rebels captured the 400m crown for both the men and women. Dante Oliver captured the men's crown with a time of 47.16, while Kristin Bridges took first place on the women's side with a time of 53.86.

Both the men's and women's 4x100m relays were also dominated by Ole Miss. The men's "A" team ran the top time of 40.16, while the women's "A" team won with a time of 45.23 followed by the Rebel "B" team in second at 46.50.

In the nightcap, the Rebels captured the men's 4X400 relay with a time of 3:06.77, which ranks as the seventh best time in Ole Miss history.

Among the participants was a pair of former Rebel greats and NCAA Champions that are now professionals in Antwon Hicks and Brittney Reese. Hicks shined in the 110m hurdle with a first-place time of 13.45, while Reese prevailed in the 100m dash with a time of 11.20.
