Eagles set six school records Power Sox Invitational

HICKORY, N.C. – The Carson-Newman men and women track and field teams started their outdoor season strong at the Lenoir-Rhyne PowerSox Invitational this weekend, especially the women's team, which set six new school records. 

Freshman Tiana Mills earned first in the women's long jump and second in the triple jump, breaking the school records for both events. Shauntae Miller finished in second-place in the women's 400m dash with a time of 59.21 and earned third in the women's 200m dash. Miller also broke school records in each event, respectively.

The women's 4x400m team of Jaa'leah White, Madi Pickel, Anna Bauder, and Shauntae Miller finished in first-place, and the 4x100m Relay team of Lindsay Franklin, Jaa'leah White, Cassie Smith and Madi Pickel finished in forth-place, each breaking the school records for their respective events.

"To start off the season and enter new ground with school records broken was definitely a strong step in the right direction," Head Track and Field Coach David Needs said. "Some of these records had been there for quite a while, but we're glad to be pushing to the next level."
