Jepleting, who has broken three school records this season, completed the race in 2:15.42 for a second place finish. Watkins finished first in the Long Jump with a leap of 5.69m, which matched a 2006 record set by Marquita Walters.
 
On the men's side, Todzah Small won the Long Jump with a personal-best leap of 7.14m, while Jamar Adams ran a personal-best time of 10.65 in the 100-meter Dash for a first place finish as well. Orlandus Gamble also claimed an event title in the High Jump with a personal-best mark of 2.11m.
 
The Braves will be back in action on Saturday when they split and attend two different meets.
