LAKE CHARLES, La. – The Loyola Wolf Pack men's and women's indoor track and field teams traveled to McNeese State University on Friday to take part in the two teams' second indoor meet of the season. 
 

Madisyn Acosta highlighted the day with two indoor school records broken, earning new marks in the 600- and one-mile runs. Her time of 1:43.58 in the 600 was more than two seconds faster than the previous school record, while her 5:26.50 time in the mile race was even closer than the previous program-best mark, edging that time by less than a second. 
 

Amber Byrd and Kaitlyn Becnel also earned new indoor personal records on the day, as Byrd ran a 1:52.42 in the same 600 race, and Becnel hit 1.55 meters in the high jump to beat her previous best. Mykhala Coleman and Bryana Bazile, who are already in the program's record books, added their names once again for the shot put and weight throw events. Coleman threw 12.20- and a 12.81-meter tosses in those two events, respectively, earning the third-best marks in each event in the program's record books. Bazile's throw of 12.15 meters in the shot put was the fifth-best effort in the record books, too. 
 

On the men's side, freshman Richard Magann earned a new season-best in the weight throw, completing a toss of 9.98 meters. Alex Medina also placed five in the competitive mile race, as the senior beat seven NCAA Division I racers. Medina's time of 1:30.21 in the 600 meters was a personal best as well, beating his previous best, which he set in the same meet two years ago, by more than three seconds. 
 

Loyola will next participate in the SSAC Conference Indoor Championships on Monday, Feb. 6, in Birmingham, Alabama.
