Hallmon, Bright and 4x100 relay's qualify for NAIA finals By Christopher Coombs Gulf Shores, AL - Two individual Blue Raiders and both 4x100-meter relay teams secured a spot in their respective finals on Saturday during the first day of competition at the 2019 NAIA Outdoor Track & Field National Championships held at Mickey Miller Blackwell Stadium. Kevin Hallmon, Safia Bright and the men and women's 4x100 meter relay teams all finished in the top eight of their respective events, advancing to Saturday's championship final in the process. The first championship qualifier of the day came from the Blue Raider women's 4x100 meter relay team of Safia Bright, Annesha Harris, Alexia DeHaven-Boyd and Marie Ninamou as the squad finished in seventh place during the trials. The quartet finished with a time of 47.08 seconds and will return for the finals Saturday at 2:40 p.m CT. The men's 4x100 meter relay team of Hallmon, Holt Keeling, Christian Whitehead, and Christian Davis followed the women's relay team in qualifying for Saturday's championship finals. The quartet finished in 4th place with a time of 40.98 seconds. The time is just 0.90 seconds off the pace set by Tennessee Wesleyan. Bright will also be back for the 200-meter dash final as she ran a 23.81 in the preliminary trials, the second-fastest time of the day, missing first by 0.01 seconds. Only William Carey's (Miss.) Aniekeme Etim had a quicker time at 23.80 seconds. Bright advances to Saturday's championship final scheduled for 5:10 p.m. Hallmon was the top qualifier in the 200-meter dash preliminaries. His time of 20.70 seconds was 0.29 seconds faster than the second-place time in the field of 25 athletes. Hallmon will be the top seed heading into Saturday's final set for 5:20 p.m. CT. DeHaven-Boyd competed in the women's 400-meter hurdles event and raced her way to a 12th place finish. She ran a 1:03.34 to finish fourth in her heat. Whitehead competed in the event on the men's side and would cross the finish line in 54.65 seconds to finish in 21st place overall and fifth in his heat. Keeling competed in the 200-meter dash as he finished in 23rd place with a time of 21.74. In the field events, Paige Pettell finished in 16th place in the women's hammer throw final. She recorded a distance of 48.56 meters on her first throw but failed to improve that distance after a foul on her second and a 47.57-meter throw on her third. Harris collected a 12th-place finish in the women's long jump finals with her distance of 5.59 meters, which she achieved on her second attempt. Tatiana Williams also competed in the event and finished in 27th place with a long jump of 5.21 meters.
