"We are excited about heading to the Midwest and competing at Kent," said Head Coach Kevin Donner. "We will see some schools that we normally do not see, and I like going against those bigger public universities that offer scholarships. They have an oversized track that is conducive for faster times, and being two weeks out from the League Championships, the athletes are starting to really prime themselves. The coaches can also evaluate who will be competing at the league meet."

About the Bison

Stefone Moore-Green continued his impressive senior campaign on the track after joining from the football team in the fall. On Saturday, Moore-Green entered the Bucknell top ten in winning the 200 (21.68), becoming the ninth Bison in school history to break the 22- second barrier in the event. Moore-Green also entered Bucknell's top ten in the 60 (6.98) in placing seventh overall. In the Patriot League performance list, Moore-Green ranks in the top ten in the 60 (9^th), the 200 (4^th) and the 400 (3^rd).
Jeff Brown finished second overall in the 60 after running the second-fastest time in both the prelims (6.89) and the finals (6.85). The senior continues to hold the top spot in the event after his school record-breaking time of 6.78 in the Bison Opener.
Nicholas Marino returned to action in the pole vault, posting a solid mark (16-5.25) after accruing a personal-best mark of 16-8.75 at the Gulden Invitational.
Both Brendan O'Toole and Owen Chase posted IC4A standards in the mile in taking top ten spots on Saturday. O'Toole comfortably passed his previous personal-best by over six seconds, while Chase also set a new personal-best by over four seconds.
Zach Ruiz (51-3.5) and Anthony Zamarra (50-6) each posted top-ten finishes in the shot put, while C.J. Falcioni was sixth in the weight throw. Ninh Lam also had a solid day in the weight throw (8^th, 56-9.25), a new personal-best that is just shy of entering the Bucknell top ten list.
