HOUSTON, Texas – Senior Ky Thomas claimed the long jump title at the Leonard Hilton Memorial, hosted by the University of Houston, posting a distance of 17' 10.75" as the Nicholls State University women's track team competed in a pair of events Friday to complete its second weekend of the indoor season.
 
Thomas was just short of her personal indoor record of 18' 0.25", which she set last weekend in the Purple Tiger Invitational. She was joined in the top 5 of the long jump by teammates Sakinah Abdul-Aziz (4th/17' 02.25") and Courtney Crawford (5th/16' 08.75").
 
For the track events, Lakiesha Taylor led the Colonels with a third place finish in the 60 meter hurdles with a time of 9.53.
 
Nicholls also competed in the McNeese Indoor Invite and earned a pair of second-place finishes. Elexus Allen took second in the 400 meter with a time of 57.81 and Hannah Naquin was runner up with a 2:24.67 in the 800 meter.
 
The Colonels will return to action on Jan. 27 in the A-State Invitational, hosted by Arkansas State.
