FAIRFAX, Va. – The women's track and field team saw their times continue to drop as they took on the field at the Mason Spring Invitational Sunday.

For the third time this season, Davidson junior Anna Davis lowered the bar in the 400-meter hurdles, leaning across the line in first place with a time of 1:01.16. Freshman Chloe Davis moved into second all-time, behind Anna, with an impressive third place, 1:01.75 performance. Chloe also pushed out her long jump best, stretching the tape 5.32 meters (17'5.5) on her first attempt of the meet.

The 'Cats opened the day on the track with another record, snapping the 14-year-old 4x100-meter relay record. The team of Cassandra Blau, Kate Carnevale, Meghan Corso and Kierra Marshall raced the baton around the track in 47.70 seconds, snapping the former program best by just seven one-hundredths of a second.

Carnevale later moved into third all-time with an impressive 12.44 second dash in the 100 meters. Classmate Cassandra Blau (12.57 seconds) and freshman Kierra Marshall (12.64) also jumped into the top 10 with their sprint performances Sunday.

Junior Bianca Nolde-Lopez nearly broke her own record in the 400-meter run, stopping the clock at 55.67 seconds, the first collegian to cross the line and second overall. Classmate Marquia Humphries (57.23) and sophomore Rachel Horowitz (58.20) finished in the top 10 and elevated their standings among the all-time top 10 at Davidson.

Nolde-Lopez then anchored the winning 4x400-meter relay team, joining Humphries, Sophia Ackerman and Rachel Horowitz to stop the clock at 3:51.10.
