Donner's Debriefing
"The Colonial Relays has been a staple on the Bucknell schedule for many years and it is a great fit for our program. It is a scored meet and the fully dimensional programs such as ours can do very well. We won both the men's and women's meets last year and I like the two-day concept to get our athletes prepared to compete on back-to-back days. I also like the non-traditional relays such the 4x1500 and sprint medley relays. This meet really brings our team together."
Last Time Out (Lafayette Invitational)
Bucknell hosts the annual Bison Outdoor Classic, one of the largest competition on the East Coast, April 12-14. Â

Last Time Out (Lafayette Invitational)
- The Bison won seven events at the Lafayette Invitational last Saturday and notched five new top-ten marks.Â
- Brian Scotto won the 110-meter hurdles and improved to sixth all-time in Bucknell history, racing 14.47. The senior has stayed healthy during the 2024-25 season, and the results have been consistently historic.
- Ethan Knight finished third (14.78) in the event in the same event, moving into tenth place on the Bucknell list.
- Knight also won the 400-meter hurdles, logging 55.91. His mark conquered the event by nearly four seconds.
- Aiden Tacker won the hammer throw and improved to eighth all-time in Bucknell history on his personal record throw of 56.92m (186-9). Â
- Angelo Regec conquered the discus throw by posting a personal record throw of 49.13m (161-2).
- Wade Shomper continued his hot streak in the shot put, winning the event tossing 16.59m (54-5.25).
- Cooper Hyken and Luke Petryna did not record top-five placements in the 100-meter dash, finishing sixth (10.66) and seventh (10.67), but, more importantly, their times unlocked a tie for eighth and tenth in Bucknell history.
