Results

The Barons traveled to Bucknell University in one of the largest outdoor invitationals of the year. This invitational had schools from all conferences ranging from large Division I teams to small Division III teams. It was an incredible opportunity for our runners to pace themselves and compete against Division I opponents.

Highlights for the Women

• Lauren Dosch ran a little behind her PR time in the 400 placing 51st with a time of 1:00.75
• Dosch had a near identical placement in the 800m run finishing 52nd with a time of 216.92
• Emily Maag led the Barons in the mile setting a PR with a time of 5:20.27 finishing just shy of a podium at 11th overall
• Both Maag and Katherine Ptak had great performances in the 3000m. Each of them ran an 11:20 good enough for 16th and 17th respectively.

Highlights for the Men

• Andrew Menck set a PR in the 100m with a time of 11.02 placing him 19th
• Menck also set a PR in the 200m with a time of 22.09
• Both of Menck's times were school records in addition to his personal bests
• Max Bruns led the Barons mile team placing 11th with a PR time of 4:24.29 
• Bruns finished 7th in the 3000m with a time of 9:01.86
• Last and by far the most exciting event of the day was Joseph Rohde in the 400m. Rohde obliterated his PR time, set a new school record, and WON the 400m event. He ran a 47.81. The only runner sub 48, beating out runners from Yale, Pittsburgh, RIT, and Bucknell. His time is a PR, SR, and currently good enough for 19th in the nation.
