The Tigers are fresh off of a 12th-place finish on the men’s and women’s side at the SEC Indoor Championships. The three-day meet was highlighted by senior Ella Onojuvwevwo who claimed gold in the women’s 400-meter final.

On the men’s side, Jordan Turner enters this weekend as the No. 5 long jumper in the country in 2026. Turner finished with silver at the SEC Championships and is looking to improve on his personal-best performance of 8.11 meters (26-7.25) that he reached a month ago.
Junior Jaiden Reid is the lone Tiger to have two entries this weekend after a dropout from the 60-meter field. Reid enters this weekend with season-best times of 6.58a seconds in the 60m and 20.62 seconds in the 200 meter. At this meet last season he clocked his PR of 6.56 seconds in the 60m.
Other Tigers competing in individual events this weekend are Athaleyah Hinckson, Keliza Smith and Justine Jimoh. While the men’s 400-meter relay will be the lone relay for LSU, entering the meet as the No. 7 team on the national-performance list.
