MONTREAL -- Seven records tumbled during the first round of the 19th annual McGill Team Challenge, Friday. The two-day competition, billed as the largest indoor track and field meet in Canada, featured eight Olympians among a meet record number of 900 athletes vying for qualifying standards and personal bests.

Olympians competing include Luguelin Santos, Jenna Martin, Daundre Barnaby, Sarah Wells, Melissa Bishop, Segun Makinde, Taylor Milne and Hank Palmer.

The highlight events on Friday included a men's elite 300-metre race and a women's elite 3000m, in addition to both  60m sprints.

Santos, who won an Olympic silver medal as an 18-year-old at the 2012 London Summer Games, claimed the special 300m in 33.27 seconds, missing the 12-year-old Fieldhouse record of 32.95, set by York University's Shane Niemi in 2002.

Bishop, running for the Ottawa Lions track club, won the women's elite 800m in two minutes, 5.18 seconds. This distance had never been run before at the McGill facility, so her time became one of three Fieldhouse records established during Day 1.

Kimberly Hyacinthe, representing the Club d'athletisme Vainqueurs, smashed two records in one fell swoop, clocking 7.29 seconds in the women's 60m. Her time was a Quebec provincial record and surpassed the Fieldhouse mark (7.35).

In the men's 60m, York's Dontae Richards-Kwok finished first in 6.71, surpassing the meet record of 6.73.

In the men's 3000m, Guelph's  Ross Proudfoot ran a sizzling time of 8:02.78, destroying both the Fieldhouse (8:07.38) and meet (8:14.96) records.

The last record ocurred in the women's shot put, where York's  Brittany Crew tossed a distance of 15.27 metres, erasing the previous meet mark of 14.36.

McGill's only medal on Friday was a silver by Caroline Tanguay of St. Hubert, Que., in the women's high jump. The 20-year-old physical therapy sophomore leaped a height of 1.72 metres, finishing second to Dalhousie's Rebecca Haworth (1.77). Both times met the qualification standard to compete at the CIS championships in Edmonton, March 6-8.

The event wraps up on Saturday at the Richard Tomlinson Fieldhouse, located inside the McGill University Sports Centre at 475 Pine Avenue West. Tickets, available at the door, are $10 for adults and $5 for students and seniors. Children 12-and-under are admitted free.

A list of Day 1 medal winners and a meet schedule for Day 2 is posted below.
