Video Interview with NCCU sophomore Alexis Sherrill    

DURHAM, N.C. – Thunderstorms twice delayed the running of Saturday’s LeRoy T. Walker Track & Field Invitational in Durham, N.C., but that did not slow down event host North Carolina Central University as its men’s and women’s teams combined for 17 event victories.

The Lady Eagles won seven individual events, while the Eagles were victorious in six. Both the NCCU men and women swept the 4x100 and 4x400-meter relays.

Celebrating individual wins for the NCCU women were sophomore Alexis Sherrill in the high jump (1.60m/5’3”), sophomore Jazmen Flagler in the triple jump (10.79m/35’5”), junior Jasmine Wanamaker in the 100m hurdles (15.00), junior Ashley McCoy in the 100m dash (11.93), freshman Amber Brooks in the 1500m run (4:55.45), sophomore Sararesa Hudson in the 400m hurdles (1:06.59), and sophomore #La’Creesha Gore# in the 200m dash (24.57).

Claiming victories for the NCCU men were senior Jamar Jones in the 800m run (2:13.75), senior Nealie Whitt in the discus throw (46.84m/153’8”), junior Nana Atakora-Bediako in the triple jump (14.26m/46’9.5”), junior LaRon Blount in the shot put (11.54m/37’10.5”), freshman Keenan Terry in the 400m hurdles (58.72), and Orolando Duffus in the high jump (1.94m/6’4.25”).
