BUFFALO, N.Y. – The University at Buffalo track and field team will squeeze in one last regular season meet as they will travel to SUNY Geneseo one last time for the 2021 season. The Bulls will compete at the Geneseo May Meet on Saturday, May 1 with the first event starting at noon. The team competed at the Geneseo Roundtable Invitational on April 9 and 10. Due to last week's high winds, the Bulls will look to improve their times in preparation of the Mid-American Conference Championships next weekend.
LAST TIME OUT
The Bulls hosted the UB Twilight Invitational a week ago where the Bulls would close out their third and final home meet of the season. The men's team would finish in first out of four with a total of 273 points. The women's team would also claim first place out of five for a total of 296 points.
In the men's discus, Sam Wray won the event with a toss of 50.07-meters. Freshman Quinn Smith finished second with a toss of 47.03-meters. Molly McCreedy won the women's discus with a top measurement of 42.07-meters. Rachel Donnner claimed second place with a toss of 38.99-meters.
Jacob Liberati would win the long jump with a jump of 6.66-meters. Nicholas Villanueva claimed third with a leap of 5.92-meters.
In the men's pole vault, Dustin Meyer won with a height of 4.65-meters.
Riley Jones finished in second place in the women's 1,500-meter run in a time of 4:43.50. Sophomore Alexia Hecico finished in a time of 4:56.60 for sixth place.
In a field of 32 runners, William Hilbert ran a fast 5,000-meter run with a winning time of 14:23.14. A herd of Bulls followed Hilbert as Scott Loforte finished in third (14:37.25), Benjamin Cardamone in fourth (14:38.48), Ryan Buzby in fifth (14:41.05) and Armani Merlino in sixth place (14:42.91).
Christina Wende would win two events on Friday evening. Running into a tough wind, she would win the 100-meter hurdles in 15.16-seconds. In the long jump, Wende would win by .30-meters with a leap of 5.51-meters.
