Cofield-Jackson excelled in the sprints with a pair of runner-up finishes in a 60- and 200- meter events at Saturday's Pioneer Open. She ran the 60-meter preliminaries in 8.07 to place just behind All-American Elisabeth Plympton of Plattsburgh State. She finished second in the final with a career best time of 8.03 seconds. Cofield-Jackson and Plympton also went at it at 200-meters in a race that came down to hundredths of a second, with Cofield-Jackson eclipsing the AARTFC standard at 200-meters in 26.01 seconds as she placed as the runner-up. That is also the 15th fastest time in Division III this season. She remains the Empire 8's fastest athlete in each event.
