XULA Track & Field at the SSAC Indoor Championships.

Women's Track and Field

6 Gold Nuggets bound for NAIA national meet

XULA Women's Indoor Track and Field will send six athletes to the NAIA National Championships next month. 

The meet, which will take place March 5-7, can be viewed live on multiple services with which the NAIA has an agreement. 

Among the top-qualifying women for Xavier are senior Breanna Clarke and junior Jaelyn Mitchell

Clark earned All-American honors in the 2025 60-meter race. This year, she will have a chance to repeat in that event while also adding to her career achievements with an appearance in the 60-meter hurdles. 

Mitchell, too, will appear in two events. She will make another appearance in the 200, the event in which she earned All-America honors last year, and will join Clark in the 60-meter dash. 

Freshman Ariyah Edwards will also run in the 60-meter hurdles, and freshman Charieon Doxley will compete in the long jump. 

Rounding out the Xavier contingent will be a pair of pentathletes. 

Junior Leojai Hibbert and freshman Tori Robinson-Thomas, who last week went 1-2 in the SSAC conference meet, will be the first Gold Nugget athletes to make an appearance at the national meet. The pentathlon is the first event contested at this year's meet. 

A full list of qualifiers and the schedule of events are both available on the NAIA website.
