RENO, Nev. — UC Davis track and field officially put a cap on the indoor season Monday afternoon, battling through a high-stakes final day to secure eighth place at the MPSF Championships. Fueled by a relentless competitive spirit, the Aggies' finale was highlighted by Maya Shinnick's silver-medal performance and a wave of gritty results to conclude the weekend.

HOW IT HAPPENED

• Maya Shinnick delivered the performance of the day in the 400m dash, flying to a second-place podium finish with a blistering time of 53.84. Shinnick's silver-medal run proved to be a weekend highlight, as she clocked in even faster than her record-setting performance at last year's championships.
• Kadidja Sangare continued her historic weekend in the 60m hurdles. After shattering the school record in Sunday's prelims, Sangare returned to the blocks for the final to secure fourth place overall (8.56).

• In the distance events, Peyton Adams showed immense heart by pulling off a difficult double. Adams led the way for Davis in the Mile, taking 13th (5:06.88), before returning just two hours later to compete in the 3,000m.
