 In her final collegiate jump, Jennifer Zweifel did what she has done so many times during her Bulldog career, break a school record.

 Zweifel took third in the triple jump at the NCAA Division II Outdoor Track & Field Championships to pick up her sixth all-America honors.
 
The senior got into the finals with her first jump of 12.36 meters while the first and second place jumpers also notched what would be their winning jumps in round one.
 
Zweifel saved her best for last as she broke her own school record by going 42-02.00 in the final attempt.

Her previous best was 41-05.00 earlier this month at the conference championships. 

Kearah Danville of New Mexico Highlands won the championship with a mark of 43-03.75 followed by Amanda Ouedraogo from Abilene Christian at 42-08.25.
