LA JOLLA, Calif.---CSUN Track & Field opened UC San Diego's Triton Invitational on Friday at the Triton Track & Field Stadium. The CSUN women's side would compete in three events on the day highlighted by a top-five finish.
Freshman Treasure Brown registered a fifth place finish in the discus throw with a toss of 42.23m (138-6). Emily Hutchinson would finish 23rd in the discus with a toss of 36.42m (119-6) while Marina McNeil-Vivanco was 24th with a heave of 36.34m (119-2).
Katherine Shipp-Davis was the only Matador, and one of 20 total, to compete in the discus elite event where she would finish in 14th place with a toss of 47.45m (155-8).
In the hammer throw, Hutchinson posted a new personal record and finished 14th with a toss of 47.36m (155-4) followed by Shipp-Davis who was 16th with a toss of 45.26m (148-6). McNeil-Vivanco would post a 23rd-place finish in the same event by tossing 42.77m (140-4).
ACCORDING TO ASSISTANT COACH JOSEPH BLUE
"On day one, the women's throws squad really showed some serious humility out there. Despite the chilly rain, they gave it their all and achieved some incredible feats. Emily Hutchinson smashed her personal record in the hammer throw by almost a meter and a half and Treasure Brown secured an impressive fifth place in the women's discus. They truly embody the spirit of a Matador. So proud of them."

CSUN completes the Triton Invitational on Saturday with a full day of competition. Field events will begin at 9:30 a.m. followed by track events starting at 10 a.m.
