Sophomore Desmond Doreceus placed second in shotput and sixth in the discus with a personal best of 47.60m, good for fourth all-time in FIU outdoor history. Dorceus is already second on the FIU outdoor list in the shotput. 

Leonarda Farkas continued her strong showings in the 1500, running a personal best of 4:37.32 to place second. Farkas carries the third-fastest outdoor 1500 time in FIU history. The Panthers placed three runners in the top seven of the event, with Andrea Loizidou and Maria Paula-Guerrero coming in sixth and seventh, respectively. 

The Conference USA Championships will take place May 13-16 in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
