Omonije, a two-sport athlete (volleyball) for the Wildcats, was the lone competitor out of 22 entries to clear 1.67 m (5-05.75), which is the exact height that won her USC's indoor competition a month ago.
For the second straight weekend to begin the outdoor campaign, Isabella Godoy (800 meters) and Anne Berquist (1500 meters) set new personal records in their respective events.
Godoy placed second with a time of 2:13.23, while Berquist recorded a 4:36.01 to come home fourth.
In addition, Molly Sullivan put together an impressive showing in the 3000-meter Steeplechase, finishing runner-up with a personal-best of 11:23.25.
