LEWISBURG, Pa.- The Bucknell Bison women's track & field team hosted the Bucknell Tuneup on Friday night. The meet was the final preparation before the Patriot League Indoor Championships next weekend. The Bison rested most of the top performers but won four events.
Results
Donner's Debriefing
"I was pleased with the Tuneup and we accomplished many of our goals. Some athletes have big days and may have run, jumped, or thrown themselves into the conversation of a league roster spot. Which is what I was looking for. My philosophy is that the more people in the discussion for 32 spots, the better we are as a team."
Recap
The top five finishers in the weight throw were all Bison. Christine Ajao won the event, earned ECAC qualification, and improved her fifth-best mark in Bucknell history with a toss of 56-3 ¾.
Bucknell filled the first four slots in the shot put. Siobhan O'Sullivan won the event with her ECAC qualifying heave of 45-6 ¼.
