AZUSA, Calif. / LONG BEACH, Calif. – The Lipscomb men's and women's track & field programs continued their successful outdoor season by competing in both the Bryan Clay Invitational in Azusa, California and the Pacific Coast Invite in Long Beach, California over the weekend. The Bisons captured three new program records in the women's long jump, women's 1,500m run, and women's 5,000m run, while also resetting the record book in multiple events.

Sophomores Kiara Carter, Lydia Miller, and Aislinn McElhaney all broke program records to lead the women's side over the weekend. Carter closed out the weekend by shattering the outdoor 1,500m run with a time of 4:19.43, while Miller broke the outdoor 5,000m run program record with a time of 15:52.20 in the event. After a successful showing in the long jump at the Pacific Coast Invite on Friday (5.95m), McElhaney shattered her own outdoor long jump for the second meet in a row with a distance of 6.30m.

Junior Austin Remick paced the men's side at the Bryan Clay Invitational by posting the fastest times by a Lipscomb runner in the 3,000m steeplechase (9:00.46) and in the 1,500m run (3:47.17). Sophomore Brady Johnson posted a time of 1:50.57 in the 800m run to lead the Bisons in the event, while also running a time of 3:48.39 in the 1,500m run.
