"We had a good day for our first meet of the year," UCO head women's track & field coach Dr. Martha Brennan said. "We didn't take a full squad, but the girls that were ready and did go learned some things and got to see where we need to be at when we come back in the Spring semester."

Scott, a true freshman from Oklahoma City, raced to a fifth-place finish in the 300 with a time of 40.23 seconds. She was only 1.5 seconds off the first runner to cross the finish line. Scott also raced to a 10th-place showing in the 60-meter dash. She finished in 7.76 seconds, only 0.26 seconds off the top finisher and just 0.09 seconds off an NCAA Division II provisional qualifying mark.

Scott was also responsible for a third top-10 for the Bronchos Saturday. She paced the UCO 4x400 relay team from the first position to a 10th-place finish. Joined by Cali Dorman, Jasmine Hopkins, and Hannah Van Den Brand, Central posted a time of 4:03.57 in the event.

Dorman also had a top-10 finish of her own along with the relay team. Also a true freshman, the Edmond, Oklahoma native finished 10th in the 600-yard race with a time of 1:34.87.

Jordan Chancellor, another true freshman that comes from Verdigris, Oklahoma, registered a 12th-place showing in the 600-yard race. She finished in 1:36.25. Chancellor also finished 24th in the long jump (4.80m) and 27th in the high jump (1.41m).

Gabby Lara, a sophomore from Oklahoma City, finished 16th in the 600, crossing the finish line in 1:42.76. Hopkins finished 17th in the 300 with a time of 43.71 seconds, and Kaleigh Dyas finished 19th in the same event with a time of 44.19 seconds.

Central Oklahoma is off for the rest of the 2021 portion of its 21-22 schedule. The Bronchos are slated to return to competition January 15 in Topeka, Kansas.
