EASTON, Pa. – Sophomore Maura Henderson broke the Lehigh women's track and field school record in the 5,000m run on Friday at the Raleigh Relays in North Carolina, and Lehigh captured 12 wins and 13 runner-up finishes on Saturday at the Lafayette 7-Way Invitational. The Mountain Hawks tallied 295 points to cruise to a first place finish among the three Division I schools at the 7-Way, while the Raleigh Relays was unscored.
Henderson highlighted the Carolina trip with a new school record 16:30.60 in the 5K on Friday. The time placed her 13th overall out of 103 runners and is 12.82 seconds faster than Elizabeth Weiler's previous program benchmark from 2014.

The Mountain Hawks swept the field in the javelin behind Hannah Patrick (36.53m), Melody Walthers (34.28m) and Meghan Reilly (33.43m). LU also took the top four places of the high jump, led by Jordan Otto (1.60m) and followed by Tyler Bannister, Olivia Reinold and Brittany Le Jouan, who all cleared at 1.55m. Seniors Kiana Wright (10.65m) and Courtney Wu (10.12m) took the top two spots in the triple jump, in addition to landing on the podium in second and third place of the long jump, with Wright taking second (5.19m) and Wu landing in third (5.07).
On the track, senior Katie Hatler was victorious in the 100m hurdles, with Mariah Kozub finishing third (16.15). The Brown and White also swept the podium in the Division I section of the 400m hurdles, led by sophomore Noreen Byrne (1:05.66), senior Natalie Jacobs and freshman Hillary McElawain.
Leah Ferguson and Amanda Fischer went two-three in the 100m dash, and Ferguson broke the tape to win the 200m dash in 27.15. Hanna Brosky and Brooke Schaeffer took the top two spots in the 400 meter dash. Freshmen Jenn Mickens and Sophie Antonioli climbed into the top three of the 800 meter run with Mickens taking second place in 2:19.94.
