Later on Hinds, Lynch, junior Brittany Hodill and freshman Cristina Cordua added another first place finish in the sprint medley with a time of 1:55.93.

It was a successful day for the men's side as well, with freshman Robert Reid taking second place in the 800M (1:57.76) and Michael Delaurenti placing third in the 3000M steeplechase with a time of 9:33.51.
