BETHLEHEM, Pa. - Lehigh looks to earn its tenth straight sweep over Lafayette in the team's first dual meet of the 2023-24 indoor season. The women's squad is chasing their 15th consecutive win and the men look for their 10th. The Rivalry presented by Lehigh Valley Orthopedic Institute begins at 2 p.m. on Saturday at Rauch Fieldhouse.Â

In last weekend's Villanova Invitational and Moravian Invite, four Mountain Hawks landed on the top-10 list with the women's 4x400 nabbing the school record. Abby Klebe, Svea Wickelgren, Grace Kennedy and Ashley Struck ran a 3:52.77 relay to add themselves into the top spot in Lehigh's record book.

Kennedy moved to eighth all-time in the 200M with 25.66 and improved her sixth place all-time mark in the 400M to 57.97. In the 1000M, Wickelgren secured tenth all-time with 2:55.07. First-years Thomas Smigo and Eddie Moore moved to fifth and eighth all-time in the 1000M (2:26.09) and 200M (22.31), respectively.
Â
Last semester in Fast Times Before Finals, sophomore Laura Reigle broke her own school record in the pole vault (4.10M) and junior Abby Klebe claimed the 1000M record (2:51.00).

The women's team defeated Lafayette 108.5-72.5 last season, highlighted by Reigle breaking her own school record (4.00M) in her first rivalry meet. On the men's side, winning 14 out of 17 events led to a 118-60 victory.
