The details

The Lady Lions' 4x100 relay team of Icess Hall, Kaya Phillips, Jade Morin, and Aniah Hines won the event in a time of 47.78 seconds. Phillips also won the 200 meters with a time of 25.44 seconds, and the 4x200 relay team of Hall, Hines, Morin, and Phillips had the fastest time of the day at 1:42.53.
