RALEIGH, N.C. –Davidson junior James Davis won the pole vault at the Terrier Relays, while the 'Cats also set a relay record at the Raleigh Relays in split squad action Saturday.
The Wildcats opened the day in the state capital with a program record in the 4x1500-meter relay. The team of senior Dylan Carmack and freshmen Raphael Oettl, Max Pearson and Colin Ross combined to stop the clock in 15:58.66 to break a five-year-old mark set at the same meet in 2014. The result was eighth overall.
Davidson also posted a strong result in the 4x800-meter relay, registering the second fastest time in program history, 7:41.64. The squad made up of two sophomores and two freshmen; Oettl, Daniel Alvarez, Max Higgins and Bryce Kalsu, was another strong showing by the young 'Cats in a ninth place finish.
Senior Sean Caveney was 11th in the 400-meter hurdles with a time of 54.32 seconds.
Down in Spartanburg, S.C., Davis cleared 4.45-meters (14'7.25) in the vault to earn his first victory of the season. Davis and Ohio Wesleyan's Jaysen Blankenship both cleared 4.45m, but Davis needed fewer attempts at 4.30m to break the tie.
Freshman Jonah Lane took eighth in the 800-meters, stopping the clock in 1:57.15. Sophomore Iain Anderson also broke two minutes, 1:59.15. Sophomore Nick Peeples placed 10th in the 200-meter dash, crossing the line in 22.39 seconds.
After a weekend off, Davidson returns to the track Saturday, Apr. 13 at the Charlotte Invitational.
