Two Missouri track and field athletes earned All-SEC honors this season after standout performances. Senior high jumper Kristi Perez-Snyman and junior javelin thrower Valentina Barrios were the two to walk away with the honors.

Perez-Snyman currently holds the high jump record at the University of Missouri, which happened at the Show-Me Showdown at the Hearnes Center in Columbia on January 17. She posted a mark of 1.83 meters to beat out teammate Claudina Diaz, which ultimately broke the school record.

Barrios has a long and successful track record in college. She finished fourth in the SEC Outdoor Championship in 2023, along with other impressive marks, which led to her continuous success. Barrios still has one more season as a Tiger.

Mizzou Quote of the Day

"He's a consummate servant leader because he absolutely recognizes that you have to flip the pyramid. Most people see the head coach up here, right? And so if you can flip the pyramid and have the head coach down here, feeding into all of these other things, I think that's truly a transformational leader."Mike Alden
