Cammy Manes, Erin Duncan and Kate Koehler were shortly behind with 4th, 5th, and 6th place finishes. On the men's side, senior Logan Owens finished with a personal best and a 5th place finish in the 1500, 4:08.07.
Both the women and men will race the 1500 meter and 3000 on Friday evening.
"I am excited to race close to home," said head coach Will Guarino. "This is a golden opportunity for San Diego track fans to get to see us in our neighborhood."
The women's 1500 starts at 7:00 p.m. followed by the men at 7:25 p.m.
The women start off the 3000 at 7:50 p.m. followed again by the men at 8:05 p.m.
"We had a great start at Occidental and are looking forward to working on early season leg speed racing," continued Guarino. "The 1500's are always exciting."
