Ole Miss Ranks No. 1 Nationally in the Men’s 1500-Meter Squad Rankings
AZUSA, Calif. – Ole Miss men's and women's track & field will split squad this coming weekend, with the Rebel distance squad heading to California for key outings at the Bryan Clay Invite (April 18-19) and Mt. SAC Relays (April 19) and the remainder of the Ole Miss team traveling to Auburn for the War Eagle Invite (April 19-20).
TEAM NOTES
• This is the 61st running of the prestigious Mt. SAC Relays, which are normally held at Hilmer Lodge Stadium in Walnut, California, but are in their fourth year off-site in Torrance while rennovations are underway. Representing Ole Miss at Mt. SAC are Shelby Brown, Maddie King and Lisa Vogelgesang in the invitational women's 3000-meter steeplechase, Clio Ozanne-Jaques, Anna Elkin, Courtney Hopkins and Ylvi Traxler in the invitational women's 5K, Mark Robertson, Mario Garcia Romo and Waleed Suliman in the invitational men's 5K and Victoria Simmons in the open collegiate women's 5K.
• The remainder of the Rebel distance squad will compete at the Bryan Clay Invite, which will hold high-powered men's and women's invitational sections of the 1500. Last season, Rebel All-American Robert Domanic ran the ninth-fastest men's 1500-meter time in NCAA history there at his school record of 3:36.33. Waleed Suliman ran the No. 3 time at Ole Miss at Bryan Clay as well at 3:39.76.
WOMEN'S NOTES
• The Rebel women hold 10 marks or times within the NCAA top-50 and nine additional performances sit in the NCAA East top-48.
• The women's 4x100-meter relay team of Jayda Eckford, Brandee Presley, Kelly Rowe and Kaira Simmons are currently the top-ranked Rebel track event at No. 18 in the NCAA and No. 11 in the East Region at their time of 44.18 from the Spec Towns Invite -- the sixth-best time in Ole Miss history.
• Senior Lindsey Murray has either won of finished as the top collegian in the women's pole vault in each of the first four weeks of the outdoor season. Her season-best of 4.25m (13-11.25) came at home last week during the Joe Walker Invite, and it currently ranks 18th in the NCAA and No. 7 in the East Region. Murray has also taken several strong attempts at breaking her school record of 4.35m (14-03.25). Murray earned her first career SEC medal at that height last outdoor season in third place at the conference meet.
• Junior Kieshonna Brooks scored 5,144 points in her first heptathlon of the season at the Spec Towns Invite at Georgia, currently putting her No. 21 in the NCAA and No. 9 in the East Region. Brooks' PR of 5,338 from the SEC Outdoor Championships last year stands as the national record in her native Saint Kitts & Nevis. The top-12 heptathlon scores in each region automatically qualify for the national meet.
• This season, Brooks has set new career-bests in four of her seven heptathlon events, including her latest long jump PR of 6.15m (20-02.25) from the Joe Walker Invite. That distance was a 10-inch PR for the junior that currently ranks 41st nationally and No. 20 in the East Region.
• Sophomore Clio Ozanne-Jaques impressed in her first career 10K race at the Raleigh Relays two weeks ago, running the second-best time in Rebel history at 33:42.06. She currently ranks 28th nationally and 11th in the East Region at that time. Freshman Victoria Simmons also had a successful trip to NC State, running the fifth-best time in school history at 34:24.00 (48th NCAA, 20th East).
• Freshman Tedreauna Britt still ranks in the top-50 nationally in the discus at her Rebel outdoor debut of 53.45m (175-04) at the Trailblazer Challenge -- the fourth-best throw in school history and the 34th-best in the NCAA.
• Sophomore Shey Taiwo, a Second-Team All-American indoors in the weight throw, opened the season with a nine-foot PR of 61.25m (200-11) to place third in the hammer at the Trailblazer Challenge, improving on her place in third all-time at Ole Miss. Taiwo ranks 37th nationally and 23rd in the East at that mark.
• Freshman Jayda Eckford ranks as the NCAA's ninth-fastest freshman in the 200-meter at her PR of 23.46 from the Joe Walker Invite last week, the sixth-best time in Ole Miss history. Overall, she sits 42nd in the NCAA and 26th in the East.
• Sophomore Maddie King led an impressive Rebel charge in the women's 1500-meter at the Joe Walker Invite, winning at the fourth fastest time in school history at 4:21.51. King's time puts her 45th nationally and 30th in the East Region.
• Other Rebels ranking within the NCAA East Region top-48 are Shey Taiwo in the discus (30th, 50.61m/166-00), Tedreauna Britt in the shot put (32nd, 15.32m/50-03.25), Brandee Presley in the 100-meter dash (32nd, 11.56), Jayda Eckford in the 400-meter dash (35th, 53.98), Kieshonna Brooks in the 100-meter hurdles (37th, 13.67), Maddie King in the 3000-meter steeplechase (41st, 10:40.89), Alex Enright in the javelin (41st, 45.50m/149-03), Kelly Rowe in the 100-meter dash (42nd, 11.62) and Annika Larsson in the hammer (43rd, 58.91m/193-03).
MEN'S NOTES
• The Rebel men hold 11 marks or times within the NCAA top-50 and three additional marks within the NCAA East Region top-48.
• The Ole Miss men's 1500-meter quartet of Waleed Suliman (NCAA No. 2, 3:40.49), Cade Bethmann (NCAA No. 3, 3:41.65), Dalton Hengst (NCAA No. 15, 3:43.92) and Mario Garcia Romo (NCAA No. 24, 3:44.69) ranks as the No. 1-ranked 1500-meter squad in the USTFCCCA's #EventSquad rankings with an average time of 3:42.69 -- a near-second lead over No. 2 Colorado (3:43.56).
• Even when including Everett Smulders' NCAA No. 34 time of 3:44.94, the Rebels still hold the national lead in the #EventSquad 1500-meter ranking with an average time of 3:43.14.
• All five Rebel 1500-meter times rank within the top-20 of the East Region.
• Dalton Hengst was named the SEC's Freshman of the Week following his performance, which ranks as the fastest among freshmen in the NCAA this year.
• Cade Bethmann won the 800-meter at the Ole Miss Classic at 1:48.96 that put him No. 11 in school history and currently has him No. 25 in the NCAA and No. 13 in the East Region.
• Sophomore Peyton Weissmann has taken at least a share of the men's pole vault title in each of the last three weeks. Weissmann's best of the year was a tremendous bounce-back performance at the Ole Miss Classic, winning at a massive PR of 5.35m (17-06.50) while also taking attempts at joining Sam Kendricks as the only Rebels to ever join the 18-foot club. Weissmann's PR stands third all-time, 14th in the NCAA, No. 3 in the East Region and No. 1 in the SEC.
• Sophomore Allen Gordon returned to action last week after missing the previous two weeks of competition due to a broken wrist. Gordon opened the season with a remarkable performance at the Trailblazer Challenge, winning the long jump at an outdoor wind-legal PR of 7.75m (25-05.25), while also finishing in the top-three in the high jump (2.12m/6-11.50) and triple jump (14.78m/48-06.00).
• Gordon ranks 15th in the NCAA in the long jump and 30th in the high jump at those marks.
• Senior Mark Robertson broke the Ole Miss school record in the 10K at the Raleigh Relays, running a 49-second PR of 29:00.46 to break Bernard Kuria's 1996 record of 29:07.38. That time currently sits No. 28 in the NCAA and No. 13 in the East Region.
• Freshman Kenney Broadnax continued his climb up the Rebel all-time record list, winning at the Ole Miss Classic in the 110-meter hurdles at 14.08 -- a near half-second PR that put him sixth in school history. He currently ranks 49th in the NCAA, 27th in the East.
• Other Rebel men ranking within the East Region top-48 include: Cole Colozzo in the pole vault (33rd, 5.05m/16-06.75), Manny Foster in the long jump (42nd, 7.38m/24-02.50) and Elijah Dryer in the 100-meter dash (45th, 10.46).
HEAD COACH CONNIE PRICE-SMITH
• Ole Miss head coach Connie Price-Smith is in her fourth season. Price-Smith, who was the head women's coach for Team USA at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, is in her 18th season overall as a head coach.
• In four seasons at Ole Miss, Price-Smith has already mentored seven NCAA champions, 61 First or Second-Team All-Americans, 29 SEC Champions and several of the highest SEC and national team finishes ever at Ole Miss -- including the highest SEC Outdoor finish ever for the women in fifth place in 2018.
• Price-Smith's coaching staff all returns as well, with associate head coach Andre Scott (jumps, women's multis), assistant coach Anthony Acklin (sprints, hurdles), assistant coach Brian Porter (pole vault, javelin, men's multis), assistant coach John Smith (throws) and director of operations Sasha Leeth all returning for their fourth seasons at Ole Miss, with associate head coach Ryan Vanhoy (distance) entering his sixth year as a Rebel.

TEAM NOTES
• This is the 61st running of the prestigious Mt. SAC Relays, which are normally held at Hilmer Lodge Stadium in Walnut, California, but are in their fourth year off-site in Torrance while rennovations are underway. Representing Ole Miss at Mt. SAC are Shelby Brown, Maddie King and Lisa Vogelgesang in the invitational women's 3000-meter steeplechase, Clio Ozanne-Jaques, Anna Elkin, Courtney Hopkins and Ylvi Traxler in the invitational women's 5K, Mark Robertson, Mario Garcia Romo and Waleed Suliman in the invitational men's 5K and Victoria Simmons in the open collegiate women's 5K.
• The remainder of the Rebel distance squad will compete at the Bryan Clay Invite, which will hold high-powered men's and women's invitational sections of the 1500. Last season, Rebel All-American Robert Domanic ran the ninth-fastest men's 1500-meter time in NCAA history there at his school record of 3:36.33. Waleed Suliman ran the No. 3 time at Ole Miss at Bryan Clay as well at 3:39.76.
WOMEN'S NOTES
• The Rebel women hold 10 marks or times within the NCAA top-50 and nine additional performances sit in the NCAA East top-48.
• The women's 4x100-meter relay team of Jayda Eckford, Brandee Presley, Kelly Rowe and Kaira Simmons are currently the top-ranked Rebel track event at No. 18 in the NCAA and No. 11 in the East Region at their time of 44.18 from the Spec Towns Invite -- the sixth-best time in Ole Miss history.
• Senior Lindsey Murray has either won of finished as the top collegian in the women's pole vault in each of the first four weeks of the outdoor season. Her season-best of 4.25m (13-11.25) came at home last week during the Joe Walker Invite, and it currently ranks 18th in the NCAA and No. 7 in the East Region. Murray has also taken several strong attempts at breaking her school record of 4.35m (14-03.25). Murray earned her first career SEC medal at that height last outdoor season in third place at the conference meet.
• Junior Kieshonna Brooks scored 5,144 points in her first heptathlon of the season at the Spec Towns Invite at Georgia, currently putting her No. 21 in the NCAA and No. 9 in the East Region. Brooks' PR of 5,338 from the SEC Outdoor Championships last year stands as the national record in her native Saint Kitts & Nevis. The top-12 heptathlon scores in each region automatically qualify for the national meet.
• This season, Brooks has set new career-bests in four of her seven heptathlon events, including her latest long jump PR of 6.15m (20-02.25) from the Joe Walker Invite. That distance was a 10-inch PR for the junior that currently ranks 41st nationally and No. 20 in the East Region.
• Sophomore Clio Ozanne-Jaques impressed in her first career 10K race at the Raleigh Relays two weeks ago, running the second-best time in Rebel history at 33:42.06. She currently ranks 28th nationally and 11th in the East Region at that time. Freshman Victoria Simmons also had a successful trip to NC State, running the fifth-best time in school history at 34:24.00 (48th NCAA, 20th East).
• Freshman Tedreauna Britt still ranks in the top-50 nationally in the discus at her Rebel outdoor debut of 53.45m (175-04) at the Trailblazer Challenge -- the fourth-best throw in school history and the 34th-best in the NCAA.
• Sophomore Shey Taiwo, a Second-Team All-American indoors in the weight throw, opened the season with a nine-foot PR of 61.25m (200-11) to place third in the hammer at the Trailblazer Challenge, improving on her place in third all-time at Ole Miss. Taiwo ranks 37th nationally and 23rd in the East at that mark.
• Freshman Jayda Eckford ranks as the NCAA's ninth-fastest freshman in the 200-meter at her PR of 23.46 from the Joe Walker Invite last week, the sixth-best time in Ole Miss history. Overall, she sits 42nd in the NCAA and 26th in the East.
• Sophomore Maddie King led an impressive Rebel charge in the women's 1500-meter at the Joe Walker Invite, winning at the fourth fastest time in school history at 4:21.51. King's time puts her 45th nationally and 30th in the East Region.
• Other Rebels ranking within the NCAA East Region top-48 are Shey Taiwo in the discus (30th, 50.61m/166-00), Tedreauna Britt in the shot put (32nd, 15.32m/50-03.25), Brandee Presley in the 100-meter dash (32nd, 11.56), Jayda Eckford in the 400-meter dash (35th, 53.98), Kieshonna Brooks in the 100-meter hurdles (37th, 13.67), Maddie King in the 3000-meter steeplechase (41st, 10:40.89), Alex Enright in the javelin (41st, 45.50m/149-03), Kelly Rowe in the 100-meter dash (42nd, 11.62) and Annika Larsson in the hammer (43rd, 58.91m/193-03).
MEN'S NOTES

• The Ole Miss men's 1500-meter quartet of Waleed Suliman (NCAA No. 2, 3:40.49), Cade Bethmann (NCAA No. 3, 3:41.65), Dalton Hengst (NCAA No. 15, 3:43.92) and Mario Garcia Romo (NCAA No. 24, 3:44.69) ranks as the No. 1-ranked 1500-meter squad in the USTFCCCA's #EventSquad rankings with an average time of 3:42.69 -- a near-second lead over No. 2 Colorado (3:43.56).

• Dalton Hengst was named the SEC's Freshman of the Week following his performance, which ranks as the fastest among freshmen in the NCAA this year.

Weissmann's best of the year was a tremendous bounce-back performance at the Ole Miss Classic, winning at a massive PR of 5.35m (17-06.50) while also taking attempts at joining Sam Kendricks as the only Rebels to ever join the 18-foot club. Weissmann's PR stands third all-time, 14th in the NCAA, No. 3 in the East Region and No. 1 in the SEC.
• Sophomore Allen Gordon returned to action last week after missing the previous two weeks of competition due to a broken wrist. Gordon opened the season with a remarkable performance at the Trailblazer Challenge, winning the long jump at an outdoor wind-legal PR of 7.75m (25-05.25), while also finishing in the top-three in the high jump (2.12m/6-11.50) and triple jump (14.78m/48-06.00).
• Gordon ranks 15th in the NCAA in the long jump and 30th in the high jump at those marks.
• Senior Mark Robertson broke the Ole Miss school record in the 10K at the Raleigh Relays, running a 49-second PR of 29:00.46 to break Bernard Kuria's 1996 record of 29:07.38. That time currently sits No. 28 in the NCAA and No. 13 in the East Region.
• Freshman Kenney Broadnax continued his climb up the Rebel all-time record list, winning at the Ole Miss Classic in the 110-meter hurdles at 14.08 -- a near half-second PR that put him sixth in school history. He currently ranks 49th in the NCAA, 27th in the East.
• Other Rebel men ranking within the East Region top-48 include: Cole Colozzo in the pole vault (33rd, 5.05m/16-06.75), Manny Foster in the long jump (42nd, 7.38m/24-02.50) and Elijah Dryer in the 100-meter dash (45th, 10.46).

• In four seasons at Ole Miss, Price-Smith has already mentored seven NCAA champions, 61 First or Second-Team All-Americans, 29 SEC Champions and several of the highest SEC and national team finishes ever at Ole Miss -- including the highest SEC Outdoor finish ever for the women in fifth place in 2018.
• Price-Smith's coaching staff all returns as well, with associate head coach Andre Scott (jumps, women's multis), assistant coach Anthony Acklin (sprints, hurdles), assistant coach Brian Porter (pole vault, javelin, men's multis), assistant coach John Smith (throws) and director of operations Sasha Leeth all returning for their fourth seasons at Ole Miss, with associate head coach Ryan Vanhoy (distance) entering his sixth year as a Rebel.
