Carolina Records Fall At Tiger Paw Invite
February 12, 2022 | Track & Field
CLEMSON, S.C. – Two school records fell as the UNC track and field teams competed on Friday and Saturday at the Tiger Paw Invite, hosted by Clemson.
Â
In a busy weekend for Carolina, Tar Heels also competed at Liberty's Darius Dixon Memorial Invitational in Lynchburg, Va.
Both record-breaking performances came on Saturday. In the first event of the morning, Daniel McArthur bested his own school record in the men's shot put with a throw of 68-1 (20.75), good for second in a stacked field.
Â
Early in the afternoon, Anna Keefer set the school record in the women's 200m with a blistering 23.24, beating Latasha Colander's mark of 23.50, which has stood since 1998. Keefer placed fifth in the event.
Â
That finish followed another standout performance by Keefer on Friday, when she missed setting a school record in the long jump by a centimeter. That jump, a PR of 21-2.50 (6.46) that ranks third in school history, put her fifth overall and the top collegiate competitor in the field.
