SEASON RECAP
Last Time Out- The Bulldogs closed out their regular season at the Georgia Tech Invitational April 19-20. Brianna Moore was the top performer, as the senior earned Big South Conference Female Athlete of the Week following her performance in Atlanta. In the long jump, Moore jumped a personal best of 6.13m and now holds the No. 2 distance in program history. Her performance earned her a sixth-place finish in the event. Moore also finished 10th in the javelin throw at 37.78m.
Two other individuals and a relay team joined Moore with top-10 finishes. Alison Graf had the highest finish, taking fourth in the women's 800m with a personal best time of 2:10.67.
DaMarr Harvey finished sixth at 21.37 in the men's 200m dash. Asheville saved its final top-ten finish for the last event of the weekend, with the women's 4 x 400m relay team taking 10th overall in 4:01.64. The squad featured Amanda Orban, Alison Graf, Zoe Bos, and Elyse Myles.
Keeping it Local- Three of the Bulldogs' regular-season meets this season were in the state of North Carolina. Asheville opened the season at Charlotte March 15-16 and traveled down the road to Montreat College March 22-23. On April 13, The Bulldogs hosted their first home track meet in 24 years. Asheville's home meet featured an impressive 12 event wins and 28 top-three finishes.
Besides the Georgia Tech Invitational, Asheville's only other out of state meet was the Tennessee Invite April 5-6.
