The Lady Bison track and field team opened the 2005 outdoor season this past Friday with two first place finishes and nine top-5 finishes in against Belmont, Tennessee Tech, and Austin Peay. Freshman Jessie Strange finished first in the javelin throw with a personal best of 116'2". In addition, the 3200 meter relay team (Jill Dyer, Samantha Wood, Ruth Mick, and Elizabeth Schall) finished first running a 9:46. Coach Clay Nicks was pleased with his teams' performance. "I thought it was a good first showing for the outdoor season," said Nicks. "We are looking forward to continued improvement throughout the season."

Other notable performances included a 2nd place finish in the 1200 meter run by sophomore Elizabeth Schall (3:44). Sophomore Brittany Miller also had a 2nd place finish, running a 47.20 in the 300 intermediate hurdles.
