Donner's DebriefingÂ
"It was a solid meet overall for us considering it was such a long day. We had 14 personal and/or season bests on the women's sides and 16 personal and/or season bests on the men's side. I also like the consistency that many of our athletes are showing which I believe is critical when preparing for championship meets. It was great to see Gaughan and Sharp climb on our all-time lists in the long jump and shot put. Quinn improved upon her 60-meter dash time and stays at No.2 all-time. Kemp had a great series in the men's long jump to make our all-time list."
Recap
Bernard Kemp clinched his first collegiate victory in the long jump. The freshman jumper leaped to a mark of 23-8 ¼. His attempt ranks him ninth in Bucknell history.
The Bison finished 1-2-5 in the 5000-meter run. Henry Didden won gold, finishing with a time of 14:44.61. Grayson Crockett earned silver with a mark of 14:46.15. Thomas White grabbed fifth (15:02.22).
The 3000-meter run had two Bison finish in the top ten. Harry Marson led the way, grabbing silver (8:32.14), and Ben Santon obtained sixth (8:41.40).
Jayson Harmer won bronze in the mile run. The sophomore runner had a time of 4:13.28.
The Bucknell "A" Team of Amani Ndegwa-Brown, Colby Belczyk, Connor Goldfarb, and Ethan Wolford-Tuffy won bronze in the 4x400-meter relay. The quartet had a time of 3:20.79.
Cooper Hyken grabbed third place in the 60-meter dash. The sophomore speedster had a time of 6.91.
Wade Shomper continued his stretch of impressive throws, placing fourth in the shot put. His throw of 53-5 sealed the deal.
