Gallaudet University first-year sprinter Oceana Brown (Miami, Fla.) broke two of her school records here Sunday at the Richard Drake Invitational hosted by Virginia Wesleyan University. Brown placed third in the 60-meter dash and fifth in the 200-meter dash in the Virginia Beach Sports Center.

Brown posted a record time of 7.92 seconds in the 60-meter dash which improves on her previous record time of 8.06 that happened back on Dec. 8, 2023 at the Bow Tie Invitational. Brown's time of 26.47 seconds in the 200-meter dash also erased her old record mark of 26.81 that happened back on Dec. 3, 2023 at the Holiday Kickoff Open. This is the second Athlete of the Week honor for Brown, who previously won for the week of January 23, 2024.
