LANCASTER, Pa. – The Franklin & Marshall women's track & field team is set to host the 2026 Centennial Conference Indoor Track & Field Championships this weekend inside the Alumni Sports & Fitness Center. Action gets underway on Saturday, February 28 and continues through Sunday, March 1.

The Diplomats have 15 projected scorers between the individual events and the relays. Earning a top seed entering the conference championship was Hadyen Adams in the high jump where she is ranked third in school history and just two-hundredths of a meter away from breaking the school record. Adams is also seeded seventh in the pole vault where she is the second-ranked individual in school history.

Lauren Dunnigan was named the Centennial Conference's Outstanding Performer of the Meet last year after winning the 60 meter dash and 60 meter hurdles. She holds the school record in both of those events and the 200 meters. The junior enters the meet as the No. 2 seed looking to defend her title in the 60 meter dash. She is seeded fourth in both the 60 meter hurdles and 200 meter dash.

In the distance events, Tara Silverman is ranked second in the 5,000 meters and third in the mile. She is ranked second in both of those events while also breaking the 3,000 meter record this season. Teammate Annalise Kauffman is ranked fourth in the mile as the Diplomats should have a pair of top running individuals. Kauffman is ranked third in school history for the indoor mile.

The Diplomats are also expecting strong performances in the relays where the team is seeded third in the distance medley relay and fourth in the 4x400 meter relay. Franklin & Marshall will also contest the 4x100 and 4x800 relay this weekend for the first time this season. Jordyn Collie is another runner to watch on the track as she enters the weekend as the No. 12 seed in the 800 meters.

Competing in the pentathlon, Amanda Imhauser is seeded second in that event. She will also compete individually in the long jump where she is ranked 11th entering the conference championship. Max McCoy will headline the throwing events where she is ranked sixth in the shot put and seventh in the weight throw.
