AMHERST, Mass. – The Davidson men's track and field team sets their sites on the 2019 Atlantic 10 Outdoor Championship Saturday and Sunday, May 4-5 at the UMass Track & Field Complex on the campus of the University of Massachusetts.

SEASON REWIND

The Davidson team of senior Dylan Carmack and freshmen Raphael Oettl, Max Pearson and Colin Ross shattered the 4x1500-meter relay mark at the Raleigh Relays, stopping the clock in 15:58.66, just under 14 seconds faster than former program best set in 2014.
Sophomore Daniel Alvarez has steadily improved over the course of the season in the 800-meter run, coming in with a seed time of 1:52.52.
Amidst his freshman campaign, Cory Gaither currently ranks fourth and fifth on the all-time performers list in the 400-meter and 110-meter hurdles performers, respectively.
Junior James Davis cleared 4.45-meters in the pole vault three times including a win at that height in the Terrier Relays.

2018 A-10 RECAP

Paced by Sean Caveney's title in the 400-meter hurdles, the 'Cats placed fifth overall with 60 points at the 2018 A-10 Outdoor Championship at George Mason last May.
Caveney won his first-ever conference crown on the final day of competition.
Jacob Hostetler was second in both the 200-meter dash and 400-meter run, setting a new 400m program record in the process.
Dylan Carmack had a pair of podium runs, taking third in both distance events – the 5k and 10k.
The 4x100-meter relay team of Hostetler, Miles Hollimon, Will Wicks and George Williams reset the program record, 41.82 seconds.

2019 A-10 INDOOR CHAMPIONSHIP RECAP

Jacob Hostetler reset a pair of school records, placing second in the 200-meter and 400-meters at George Mason Field House.
The 4x800-meter relay team of underclassmen Daniel Alvarez, Taylor Drake, Bryce Kalsu and Raphael Oettl also smashed the program record, stopping the clock in 7:45.98 for a podium spot. Alvarez broke the 1k record, 2:29.51, placing sixth in the finals.

BREAKING THROUGH

Including indoor in February, Jacob Hostetler has posted four straight individual second-place finishes. The Seattle, Wash., native looks to step onto the top spot of the podium in his final A-10 Championship appearance.

COACHES COMMENTS – HEAD COACH RENNY WALDRON
"We head into the championship meet with momentum; the last two meets have been really for us and there have been a lot of personal bests. We are looking forward to getting out there and competing to the best of our ability."
