Emily Bassett - Women's Track and Field

CLAREMONT, Calif. – Emily Bassett (CMC) helped the Athenas to three wins over the weekend at the first SCIAC Multi Dual meet of the season. CMS defeated all three conference opponents at the event, beating Occidental (99-64), La Verne (122-40), and Chapman (157-4) by convincing margins. Bassett was perfect on the day, winning all three of the throwing events she participated in.

Bassett won the shot put (11.79m), discus throw (39.41m), and hammer (58.49m) by wide margins over the field. Her most impressive showing came in the hammer throw where she won the event by more than 15 meters over the second-place finisher.  

The Claremont-Mudd-Scripps women’s track and field team is back in action on Saturday when the Athenas travel to Occidental College for the Oxy Distance and Sprint Carnival.
