CLINTON, Miss. - Bossier Parish Community College's men's and women's track and field teams will compete in the program's first-ever meet here on Sat., March 6 in Mississippi College's 2021 Season Opener Outdoor Meet at James Parkman Track Complex.

Under the direction of veteran track and field coaches Scott Carroway and Barry Plunkett, both the men's and women's teams feature four members, who will compete in a variety of events on Saturday.

A freshman from Parkway High School in Bossier City, Jordan Dukes, and sophomore Teanna Eason, who's from Red River High School in Coushatta, will run sprints for the Lady Cavs. Benton High School product freshman Kristen Glovier will throw the discus, while sophomore Kelly Willis from Castor High School will compete in the javelin.

On the men's side, Dezmand Bryant, a sophomore from Red River High School, and freshman Seth Warren, who's from Northwood High School in Blanchard, will run the sprints for BPCC. Warren is also expected to compete in the hurdles. Haughton High School product freshman Cameron Crenshaw will run in the distance races. Brock Nichols, a freshman from Benton High School and the son of Lady Cavaliers head basketball coach Brenda Nichols, is expected to compete in the jumps. Men's team member, Tyler McComic, who is a wheelchair athlete, will compete individually at various special events throughout the season.
