The Matadors returned to Nevada for the Wolf Pack Classic later in the season, boasting first-place finishes for Tylor Connelly in the weight throw (17.53m/57-6.25), Jay Louison-Roe in the triple jump (15.32m/50-3.25), Elijah Ignacio in the shot put (17.35m/56-11.25) and James Crawford in the 200m (20.93).Â
