LONG BEACH, Calif. – Montana continued its busy week through California on Friday, with a handful of athletes competing on Day 1 of the Beach Invitational in Long Beach.
The highlight came from junior Jansen Ziola, who ran a 24.60 in the women's 200 meters, which was near a lifetime best and a time that ranks seventh in the Big Sky this season.
Montana also had several additional athletes registered for the Bryan Clay Invitational, but none competed. Instead, several Grizzlies competed in the Pacific Coast Intercollegiate on Thursday, a meet that was not originally on Montana's schedule.
Below is a look at Thursday's highlights from the Pacific Coast Intercollegiate:
