LEWISBURG—Two new school records highlighted the day for the Bloomsburg University women's track and field team on Saturday at the Bucknell Team Challenge.
 
In the shot put Tayler Harkins (Lansdale/North Penn) threw 12.33 meters (40' 5.5") to break the school of 40' 3" set in 1990 by Kim Turofski. Kaylee Caruso (Montoursville/Montoursville) also broke the school record in the triple jump with a mark of 11.43 meters (37'6'). She surpassed the mark of 36' 6.5" by Angela Schaub in 1997.

Holly Springs/Boiling Springs) and Vicki Davis (New Ringgold/Schuylkill Haven) at 1500-meters with times of 4:37.79 and 4:42.91, respectively. In the discus Nechole Hill-Perry (Harrisburg/SciTech) improved her seed with a throw of 38.58 meters (126' 7").
 
Several Huskies also had season-best performances at the meet.  At 3000-meters Courtney Werner (Hudson, OH/Hudson) and Keelan McDonald (Chalfont/Central Bucks West) ran 10:35.13 and 10:58.71, respectively.

"It was a great day for a track meet and many made the most of the opportunity," said head coach Bernie Empie". "Plenty of big PR's, new PSAC qualifiers, and a couple new school records. I'm excited for our teams to get the chance to compete in front of the home crowd next weekend. It should provide for a nice boost leading into the PSAC Championships May 1-3."
