FAIRFAX, Va. – Women's track and field registered six new school records in the opening day of the Atlantic 10 Outdoor Championship Saturday at George Mason Stadium.
Hannah Kanjian got things off to a fast start for the Wildcats, breaking the program's 100-meter hurdle record in the opening event of the heptathlon. Kanjian leaned across the line at 14.61 seconds, breaking Jamilah Sawyer's 22-year-old record set at the 1999 Southern Conference Championship. Kanjian sits in third after four events with 2931 points with Hazel Tankard in seventh with 2565.
Junior Bianca Nolde-Lopez became the first-ever Wildcat to break 55 seconds in the 400-meters. The Littleton, Colo., native flew around the track, easily winning her heat and breaking her own program record with a time of 54.81 seconds. Sophomore Rachel Horowitz also qualified for the finals with a new personal best run of 56.47 seconds.
Sophomore Kate Carnevale took down a pair of sprint records in prelims. She opened her busy weekend with a new record in the 100-meter dash, blazing down the straightaway in 12.06 seconds. Carnevale backed up her speed by resetting the standard in the 200-meter dash, stopping the clock at 24.60 seconds. Both times qualified her for the finals.
Junior Anna Davis broke the 400-meter hurdle record for the fifth time this season in as many tries. She lowered her own mark to 1:00.86, winning her section to advance to the finals. Freshman teammate Chloe Davis will line up with her after a new personal best run of 1:01.53.
Sophomore Megan Burkholder earned the team's first medal of the day after a school record performance in the pole vault. Burkholder cleared 3.71-meters to place third.
Senior Caroline Willis goes out on top of the record books for Davidson in the 3000-meter steeplechase. Willis scored for the Wildcats, stopping the clock at 11:09.00 to take seventh in the field.
Classmate Eleni Daughters used Kayla O'Connell of Richmond to produce the third fastest preliminary time of the day, taking second in her section with a time of 2:11.10 to easily advance in a deep field of A-10 half milers.
The Wildcats scored eight points in the opening day, with most of the work to be done tomorrow. Be sure to follow the Wildcat men all weekend long on Twitter and Instagram!
