SELINSGROVE, Pa. – The Franklin & Marshall women's track & field team set four top 10 program records at the Susquehanna Valentine Invitational on Saturday. Overall, the Diplomats finished the meet with five regional qualifying marks as the team is just two weeks out from the Centennial Conference Championships.

Lauren Dunnigan continued to excel as she once again was a double winner in the 60 meter dash and 60 meter hurdles. Dunnigan tied her school record from earlier this season when she finished in 7.71 seconds during the finals of the 60 meter dash. She was later victorious in the hurdles with a time of 8.95 seconds. Dunnigan added a third event title as part of a relay when she ran the opening leg of the 4x400 that placed first in a time of 4:17.65. That relay additionally featured Arek Giir, Lillian Williams, and Avery Canady.

F&M had several standouts in the mile as Tara Silverman (5:12.99) and Annalise Kauffman (5:15.77) ran the second and third-fastest times in school history. Those marks were both regional qualifying marks for the distance duo. Jordyn Collie was the team's top finisher in both the 200 meter (29.38) and 400 meter (1:04.29) dashes, while Lillian Williams added a top 10 finish in the 400 meters (1:04.60). F&M added two top 10 placers in the 800 meters where Emily Jones (2:30.88) and Abby Bachman (2:34.70) took fourth and eighth, respectively.

Hayden Adams highlighted the field events as she achieved her own regional qualifying mark in the high jump when she cleared 1.61 meters to become the third-ranked individual in school history. Adams was also eighth in the pole vault as she cleared 3.10 meters. The throws were highlighted by Max McCoy placing fourth in the shot put (11.44m) and also recording the team's best mark in the weight throw (11.46m).

Women's track & field will have just one meet remaining before hosting the Centennial Conference Championships as the Diplomats are next slated to compete at Cornell's Denault Invitational on Saturday, February 21.
