RALEIGH, N.C. & TUCSON, ARIZ.- Bucknell women's track & field finished up the Raleigh Relays and the reigning United States national javelin champion Evelyn Bliss threw at the USATF Winter Long Throws National Championships on Saturday.

Results (USATF) | Results (Raleigh)

Bliss made her junior season debut at the USATF Winter Long Throws National Championships amidst a small but elite field of competition, including fellow Keystone State thrower Madison Wiltrout. Despite battling a troublesome stomach bug, Bliss carved out a third place finish on a throw of 54.79m (179-5). The mark arrived in her first attempt. Her second chance fouled. The third attempt flew 46.33m (152-0).

Bliss rallied in the fourth throw for a mark of 53.05m (174-0). The fifth try fouled but she finished the day on a final distance of 47.69m (156-5).

Madison Fowler's participation in the hammer throw rounded out the Bucknell contingent at the Raleigh Relays. The Orange & Blue sophomore finished 15th on a throw of 53.48m (175-5). Like Bliss, her best mark arrived in the first attempt. Her second try flew 51.28m (168-3). Fowler fouled on her final chance and did not qualify for the finals.

Bucknell faces Binghamton tomorrow in a dual titled the Battle of the BUs.
