Emory University sophomore Lauren Attiah recorded a first-place finish and NCAA qualifying mark in the triple jump, and two other second-place finishes, while competing at the Sewanee Tiger Indoor Invitational last weekend. Attiah's distance of 11.25 meters in the triple jump was her second-best mark of the season and .02 meters better than the NCAA provisional qualifying distance. She also recorded second place finishes in the high jump (1.50 meters) and the long jump (5.28 meters). Attiah is currently the top UAA performer in both the long jump and the triple jump this season.
