GENESEO, N.Y. - The University at Buffalo track and field team wrapped up their weekend in Geneseo as the two-day meet came to a close on Saturday evening. Several Bulls made huge impacts for the team.

Freshman Evan Hilbert led the men with a personal best and second place finish in the 1,500-meter run with a time of 4:00.68. Alex Hislop took fourth in a personal best time of 4:03.60.

Despite unusually hot temperatures for early April, Riley Jones took home the 5,000-meter run title on her birthday in 18:04.99 and freshman Sean O'Brien set a personal best winning the 5,000-meter run for the men with a time of 15:07.32.
