ROCK HILL, S.C. – Strong finishes in the 1,500-meter run, long jump and 3,000-meter run led Davidson men's track and field to a tie for third place at the Carolinas Cup Thursday night, hosted by Winthrop University.
Grayam Sailor-Tynes led a 1-2-3 podium sweep in the 1,500m, while Stewart Dalton won the long jump and was joined in the top three by Xzavier Killings. The two events accounted for 40 of the Wildcats' 83 points for the night.
Sailor-Tynes completed the 1,500m in 3 minutes, 58.66 seconds, and was followed by Walker Mogen (3:59.33) and Will McDuffie (4:01.07), in first and second, respectively.
Dalton leapt a personal best and Davidson all-time top-10 distance of 22 feet, 8.5 inches (6.92m), while Killings placed third with a top leap of 22-6 ¼ (6.86m) to earn a place on the school top-10 performers list.
The Wildcats added 19 more points in the 3000m by taking five of the top seven places. Daniel Samet led with a second place finish in 8:43.23, while Whitner Chase (third, 8:45.49), Aaron Forburger (fourth, 8:45.58) and Ryan Phillips (sixth, 8:46.12) finished close together.
