BLACKSBURG, Va. – Campbell track & field finished its first two-day meet of the year at the Virginia Tech Invitational, Jan. 15 and 16, at the Rector Fieldhouse.

"Both squads really stepped it up this weekend," head coach Michael Kelly said. "Our women especially had a really good meet. A couple school records went down (60-meter hurdles and triple jump) and a slew of personal bests were achieved from nearly every one of our women competing. Sabina crushed the previous school record with a jump of 12.50 and Lilla also bested her own school record in the 60-meter hurdles. As of right now Sabina's mark is No. 20 in the country Lilla No. 38. The top-16 qualify for NCAA."

On the women's side, Tatiana Wolfe finished the 200-meter race with a time of 25.49 seconds, improving her time from last week by 0.67 seconds. Jocelyn Culbreath also improved her time from last week's 200-meter race by 0.72 seconds. Deonica Reid also represented the Fighting Camels in the 200-meter race as well as the 60-meter dash.

­­Culbreath continued to improve her marks as she ran a 57.88 in the 400-meter dash, knocking off 1.93 seconds from her previous time last week. Racheal Brown recorded a better mark in the 400-meter race with her 59.31 time in the race.

"Other big performances were from Tatiana 200-meter,  Jocelyn 300-meter, 200-meter, 400-meter, Shenelle in Long jump," Kelly stated. "Roshae had two great races in the 800-meter and 1-mile. Joan also had a solid 1-mile race."

Last week's 800-meter race winner, Roshae Jackson, finished third in this weekend's race at 2:16.11, over five seconds quicker than last week's mark.  Joan Maritim competed in the 800-meter race as well for Campbell. Maritim also finished sixth in the 1-mile race for Campbell.

"Although there weren't any serious personal best's the men really had a good meet as well," Kelly said. "I feel like our returning guys are back to where we left off at the end of last year, which is a really good thing. Our freshmen guys are adjusting fast to the indoor season and have really improved from last week."
