Mya Walker didn’t run indoor track this year so her first two meets of the outdoor season were her first track meets in nearly a year. And she’s made the most of them.
Walker, a Penns Grove graduate and Rowan junior, ran two sprint PRs at the Oscar Moore Invitational Saturday on her home track in Glassboro.
Walker lowered her 100 PR from 12.48 from the 2024 NJAC Championships in Galloway Township to 12.37 in placing 2nd to post-graduate Divonne Franklin, the 2023 NCAA Division 2 national champion for California of Pennsylvania.
At Penns Grove, Walker had a PRs 12.97 and 27.01, both from the 2023 Salem County Championships at Pennsville.
She also PR’d in the 200 Saturday with a 25.78. Her previous best was a 25.98 at last year’s NJAC meet in Ewing.
She’s now 7th in the NJAC in the 100 and tied for 11th in the 200.
