WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. –
Junior Jacob Hostetler won a pair of events for Davidson men's track and field at the Wake Forest Outdoor Opener Saturday at Kentner Stadium.

Hostetler, who returned to the track two weeks ago, claimed victories in the 200 and 400-meters. The Seattle, Wash., native stopped the clock in 48.86 seconds to win the quarter mile and 22.41 seconds in the 200m.

Three other Wildcats placed in the top eight of the 400m led by George Williams in fifth (50.33). Garrett Nickelson (52.11) and Cole Reynolds (53.20) finished seventh and eighth, respectively.

Junior Sean Caveney came home second in the 110m hurdles, racing down the home stretch in 15.07 seconds. He also placed second in the 400m hurdles (55.22).

Freshman Miles Hollimon was third in the 200m with a time of 22.79 seconds. He returned to take third in the 100m dash (11.15). Classmate Kerry Winfrey was sixth with a time of 11.62 seconds.

Senior Ian Robertson placed seventh in the 1500m, stopping the clock in 4:00.69. Freshman Daniel Alvarez was also seventh in the 800m (1:59.46).

"Today was a character building day for our team. The guys handled the elements well and came together as a team," said head coach Renny Waldron. "These meets are great preparation for our championship meets."

The Wildcats had a solid day running the baton around the track. The 4x400m relay team beat Harvard for first to end the meet, stopping the clock in 3:28.88. The 4x100m relay team kicked off the day with third place finish (43.43 seconds).

Davidson returns to the track Saturday, Apr. 7 at the Gamecock Invitational hosted by the University of South Carolina at Kregger Track.
