Adding a third event to her collection of top-four NCAA Division II Indoor Nationals provisional qualifications, Academy of Art track & field's Marie-Jeanne Ourega excelled in the 60m hurdles while matching her NCAA DII leading mark in the long jump at the Rumble in the Jungle Invitational.

In the Jan. 19 meet, Ourega's first time competing in the 60mH this season saw her deliver a new personal record of 8.49 to win the event final, put herself fourth in the country, and fifth in ART U history.  Meanwhile, she dominated the long jump by nearly 0.50m, equaling her 20-2.5 (6.16m) mark that currently paces the nation by 0.02m.
