Lafayette 7-Way Results | Raleigh Relays Results
EASTON, Pa. - The Lehigh men's track and field team scored 178 team points to win the Lafayette 7-Way Invitational on Saturday afternoon. The team collected seven runner-up performances on the afternoon to go with six individual wins from Brian Arita, Henry Paul, Adeolu Adesida, Cody Israel, Lucas Warning, and the 4x400 relay team. The Mountain Hawks also sent several athletes to compete on Friday at the Raleigh Relays in North Carolina.
"Overall we were solid," said head coach Matt Utesch. "It's always nice to get a win, but it's still early in the outdoor season and we need to see some faster times and better scores."
Warning came within two centimeters of his PR to win the shot put at 17.60 meters. Christopher Foley also picked up a team point in sixth place (13.03m). Warning also landed in the top three of the discus throw, placing third overall (43.56m), where sophomore Trevor Knowles scored team points with his fifth place mark (37.89).
Adesida leapt his way to first place in the high jump with an IC4A qualifying mark of 2.04m, with Daniel Boardman also scoring team points in third place. Additionally, Boardman scored with his second place long jump of 6.41m. Beau Whitman took fourth place in the pole vault, and Michael Camera and Cody Israel finished 4/5 in the long jump. Israel also earned a win on the afternoon in the triple jump (13.38m), with Fritz Isaac finishing second (13.01m).
In the sprints, Camera (PR-11.23) finished in third and Jake Sabatini (11.59) took sixth place to earn points in the 100m dash. James Clements chipped in with a runner-up performance in the 400m dash, crossing the finish line in 50.24. Freshman Emre Soybas made his collegiate outdoor debut in the 400, finishing in fifth place (51.04).
Clay Stabolepszy (PR-1:55.84) collected a second place finish of his own in the 800 meter run, with James Chappell, Christopher Mascetti and Kyle Berman taking sixth through eighth places, respectively.
Scott Mason and Seamus Cullinane grabbed a combined 10 team points in the 1500, with Mason taking second place (4:06.92), just 0.09 seconds behind the winner, while Cullinane settled for fifth place.
Arita picked up the first individual win of his collegiate career, breaking the tape in the 5K (15:20.26), with Kyle Leonard joining him on the podium in third place and Nicholas Hirdt picking up a point in sixth. Lehigh also grabbed points in the hurdles, with Andrew Culkin taking second place and Robert Hugin finishing sixth in the 400m hurdles, and Knowles taking fourth place in the 100m hurdles.
Paul (9:53.42) also captured his first individual win with a victory in the 3,000m steeplechase. Joseph Inglis helped make it a sweep of the top two spots for the Mountain Hawks by capturing second place.
Lehigh also collected a win form the 4x400 'A' relay team.
On Friday at the Raleigh Relays, Patrick Reilly finished in 31st place in the 10K, Alexander Fitzgerald crossed the line in 40th and Sean Burke set a new PR in 50th place (30:00.15). Evan Hardy and Samuel Layding both competed in the 5K, while John Tolbert participated in the 3,000m steeplechase.
The Mountain Hawks will stay in the Lehigh Valley for their next meet on Saturday, April 2 at the Muhlenberg Invitational in Allentown.
