On the men's side, Gabriele Tosti took home gold in the triple jump. On the women's side, four school records were set. Hannah Cade broke the school record in the pole vault and earned silver with her final clearance of 3.85 meters.
 
This season has been a very historic two months for the Texans. In all, 14 school records have been broken and 56 top 10 performance bests have been reached by both the men's and women's squads.
