LUBBOCK, Texas - The Chaparrals set four new school records, as LCU closed out competition on day two of the Corky Classic at Texas Tech on Saturday, Jan. 14.

Joy Egwu set two new school records, the first being in the 60-meter run. The Midland native finished 34th out of 65 competitors in the event with a time of 7.91 seconds. That time beats out Charlotte Scannell's mark of 8.27 seconds set at the 2022 Rumble in the Jungle by 0.36 seconds. Egwu is the first Lady Chap to ever finish the 60-meter run in under eight seconds.

Egwu, along with Jozlyn Arana, Kiley Cummings and Anna Salisbury set a new school record in the 4x400 meter run. The quartet finished 16th out of 26 teams with a time of 4:01.15.
