Day One Recap
The Radford track & field program competed at day one of the Big South Outdoor Championships on Monday at the campus of High Point University. Hannah Moran highlighted the day with her victory in the 10,000m.

After breaking the conference record in the event earlier in the season, Moran once again showed her class, dropping the field with two-kilometers to go to claim victory in 35:34.69. Abby Seigel also competed in the 10,000m, finishing 11th in her first ever crack at the distance with a time of 37:44.35, good for fifth in Radford history. Moran was the lone scorer on the day for the Highlanders putting the team in a tie for sixth place with 10 points after a day.

Entering day two, however, Maddie Wright is threatening to snag some more points for the Highlanders. Through four events in the heptathlon, Wright sits in fifth place with 2,469 points. Wright snagged a PR in the shot put with a throw of 9.55m (31-4) and matched her season best in the high jump at 1.40m (4-7).
