March 31, 2018

Complete Stanford Invitational Results

Stanford, Calif.----- San Jose State University's Nicole Iloanya posted a season-best 12.68 meters in the women's invitational triple jump and the Spartans had a 47.89 time in the 4x100 meter relay on the final day of the Stanford Invitational track and field meet.

Iloanya finished fourth in the event as she improved on her opening season mark of 12.39 meters at the March 23 Rainbow Relays in Honolulu, Hawaii.

"Nicole competed really well in the triple jump. She improved her mark from the Hawaii meet. That (her 12.68 meters) will be a pretty comfortable mark to get into the NCAA (West Prelims) meet (in May). She looked really, really good," said San Jose State University director of track and field Jeff Petersmeyer.

Iloanya did double duty running the second leg of the Spartans' 4x100 relay. The quartet of Jayla Williams, Iloanya, Brittany Brown and Destiny Longmire turned in a 47.89 time to finish tenth.

"We've had five women moving in and out of the relay. As time goes on, we'll iron out the kinks and it will get better," Petersmeyer said about the Spartans' 4x100 relay that was slowed at Stanford by an uneven baton exchange.

"We had really good performances this weekend with Jenny (Sandoval in the 10,000 meters) and Jeanette (Zambrano in the steeplechase) headlining it; Kolbi Sims winning the collegiate section of the long jump with a huge PR (personal record)... All in all, we competed really well. We'll put everybody back together (during the week) and come out swinging in San Diego on Friday."

The Spartans return to action, Friday, April 6, at the Mountain West Challenge hosted by San Diego State.
