Results (Scarlet & White Invite) | Results (Sykes & Sabock Invitational)
"It was an outstanding meet for our women's program," said head coach Kevin Donner. "Five all-time top 10 marks and four ECAC qualifiers as well as many season and lifetime bests and overall top 8 finishers. Today will help us with our confidence, and we hope to keep the momentum going as we head to Ocean Breeze next week for another big meet in a great facility."

Bridget Lalonde inscribed her name upon the Bucknell record books with three top-ten finishes. Her 400 Meter Dash time of 55.83 was ninth at the event but it is second all-time in the Bucknell lists, only 0.5 seconds behind the first-place mark. It also earned ECAC qualification. In the 200 Meter Dash, her time of 25.19 was 25th for the event but it is now eighth in Bucknell history. Her final top-ten ranking came as part of the 4x400 Meter Relay Team. As part of the Bucknell "A" Team along with Katherine Loew, Jessie Castellano, and Meghan Quinn, the quartet raced to sixth (3:45.21) at the event, fourth in the Bucknell lists, and earned ECAC qualification.Â
The 200 Meter Dash was not finished being rewritten by Lalonde. Meghan Quinn added another laurel to her impressive career by moving into third in Bucknell history. Her time of 24.68 granted her ninth place in the event and ECAC qualification.Â
Caryn Rippey continued her impressive freshman campaign by running herself into the Bucknell record books for the 3000 Meter Run. Her time of 9:50.35 is now ninth in Bison history, and it grabbed her 14th in the event. Additionally, it granted ECAC qualification for the young runner.Â
The Bison dominated the High Jump placing four jumpers in the top seven. Abby Kates finished third and tied her personal best with a leap of 5' 5". Karen Hull grabbed fourth with a mark of 5' 5". Olivia Boyce nabbed fifth (5' 3"). Madeline Lehker finished out the foursome with a jump of 5' 3" to obtain seventh.
Karen Hull finished sixth in the 60 Meter Hurdles with a dash of 8.84.Â
In the 5000 Meter Run, Kate Amaddio ran for a time of 17:37.15 to obtain a sixth-place finish.
