Track & Field Dominates for Outdoor Season Opening Weekend

ATLANTA, Ga. – Lipscomb's track & field programs opened their 2022 outdoor season at the Yellow Jacket Invite, hosted by Georgia Tech over Friday and Saturday, March 18 and 19. The Bisons earned ten trips to the podium and three program records to being their season.
 
While the majority of the squad went to Atlanta to compete, four members of the women's program went to High Point, North Carolina to compete in the heptathlon at the Bob Davidson Invitational, hosted by High Point University.
 
The Bisons swept the event with Anna Richardson in first place (4752), Aislinn McElhaney in second (4650), and Bella Jackson in third (4510). Franziska Decker rounded out the quartet at ninth place with 3762 points.
 
Meanwhile in Atlanta, three Bisons earned new program records in their events – Allie Scott, Kendall Long, and Bing Hudson.
 
Scott notched a distance of 11.48m in the women's triple jump to replace the former record of 11.37m, placed in 2014 by Ki'ana Christy. She now holds both the indoor and outdoor women's triple jump program records.
 
Long earned another program record for the women's team, recording a time of 1:02.92 to eclipse the former record of 1:03.51 from Taylor Edmundson, placed in 2019.
 
The third record came from freshman Bing Hudson in the men's 2000m steeplechase. Hudson bested the previous program record of 6:03.52 set by Ashton Fisher in 2013 with a time of 6:03.12 in the event to earn his first program record.
 
Determined to kick the season off strong, the Bisons collected seven additional trips to the podium in Atlanta, including two first place finishes. Merabu Nagwandala earned first in the women's 800m run with a time of 2:10.23, crossing the line first out of nine Bisons and 32 total runners.
 
For the men's program, Brady Johnson finished first in the men's 800m run with a time of 1:50.38. He was closely followed by Joshua Bell who took second place at 1:50.76.
 
Representing the long-distance crew well, Kiara Cater logged a time of 4:31.29 to take third in the women's 1500m. Three other Bisons earned top-10 places in the event as well with Mackenzie Barnett earning sixth (4:34.26), Colbi Borland in seventh (4:35.61), and Ally Suyak in ninth (4:36.55).
