The 4x100 relay of Rachel Pion, Sydni Lehr, Ashley Kelley, and Erica Dimmick took 5th (51.85), while, individually, 6th place was achieved by Pion in the 100m (13.21), Sienna Matregrano in the shot put (9.81m), and Grace Shippee in the discus (30.88m). Just outside the scoring line with 7th-place efforts were Dimmick in the 800m (2:24.90), Nina Parziale in the 1500m (4:58.51), and Lehr in the triple jump (10.03m) -- all among the many personal records checked off by UNE competitors.
