Day two of the RMAC Championships brought more success for the Yellow Jackets as numerous athletes earned All-Conference honors and a school record was broken.
 
"We really backed up day one with a strong day two today," said Head Coach Seth Mischke. "The kids are responding to the challenges and we are very excited to finish things off tomorrow!"
 
The night ended in a blaze as the women's distance medley relay topped off a successful day of competition with a Provisionally Qualifying time that was also good enough to break the school record. Ruby Lindquist, Mikayla Tracy, Taylor Lundquist, and Xiomara Robinson completed the distance medley relay in 11:54.43 shattering the school record set in 2011 of 11:57.99.
 
The Yellow Jackets also added more All-Conference athletes to the ranks today with Kyla Sawvell earning First Team All-Conference honors in the women's shot put. While Hoyt Nicholas and Drazen Moratzka each earned Second Team All-Conference honors. Nicholas earned his Second Team honors in men's shot put while Moratzka earned his in high jump.

The day started out hot for the Yellow Jackets are the men took the circle for shot put. Sully Mack and Hoyt Nicholas each competed in the men's shot put with Nicholas recording a throw long enough to earn him a spot in finals.
