Track & Field Shines at Raleigh Relays

RALEIGH, N.C. – Lipscomb track and field traveled to Raleigh, N.C. to compete at the Raleigh Relays, hosted by NC State. The Bisons completed the three-day meet with one first place finish, five new program records, and a slew of personal bests.
 
The Bisons' highlight of the weekend came as Aislinn McElhaney claimed first place in the women's long jump with a decisive 6.52m (21' 4.75") jump.
 
Her distance marked a personal best for McElhaney, set a new program record, ranks her first in the ASUN by nearly half a meter, and placing McElhaney sixth in the nation for the women's long jump – just 0.16m behind the NCAA lead women's long jumper.
 
Kiara Carter secured the squad's next program record with a 2:03.42 to finish sixth overall in the event. Her time stands as the fastest in the ASUN as well as putting her tied for 14th in the nation.
 
The Purple and Gold did not stop there, Braedon Palmer earned a new program record with a 13:49.37 in the men's 5,000m as he finished 20th overall out of 198 total competitors in the event.
 
Colbi Borland then added another program record for the women with a 33:30.39 in the invitational section of the women's 10,000m run.
 
The quartet of Abigail Alvarado, Kennedy Miller, Kiara Carter, and Aislinn McElhaney combined for a time of 3:47.30 in the women's 4x400m relay to log the fourth program record of the weekend for the Bisons.
 
The Purple and Gold also put up a slew of top-20 finishes over the weekend. Braeden Ofosu-Kwarteng recorded two of the squad's top finishes, clocking a 47.78 in the men's 400m dash to finish seventh overall and logging a 21.57 in the men's 200m dash to finish 15th overall.  
 
Kiara Carter clocked her second top-20 finish of the weekend when she finished 13th overall in the women's 1,500m with a time of 4:18.72. Bella Jackson finished 10th overall in the women's high jump with a 1.65m (5' 5") jump and Makayla Watson placed 20th overall in the women's 100m dash with a time of 11.91 to round out the squad's top-20 finishes of the weekend.
