Alyssa Neal Earns a Pair of All-American Awards at NAIA Championships

GULF SHORES, Alabama - Alyssa Neal capped her outstanding season for Warner Pacific with two All-American performances at the NAIA National Track & Field Championships.

The sophomore narrowly missed out on two event wins, placing 2nd in both the long jump and triple jump competitions.

The long jump was delayed for one day due to inclement weather, resulting in both the long and triple jump being held on Friday. 

Neal matched her program record in the long jump, turning in a distance of 5.97 meters (19-07). That effort was eight inches short of champion Elizabeth Dadzie from Oklahoma Baptist.

A few hours later Neal again was close to an individual title, but her effort of 12.12 meters (39-09.25) was just behind Jerica Heyd of St. Gregory's. The distance was a new Warner Pacific record.

Adding to her pair awards at the NAIA Indoor National Championships, Neal is now a four-time NAIA All-American.
