LYNCHBURG, Va. – The Radford women's track & field distance squad got some of its first action of the outdoor season with the running of the Dr. Jack M. Toms Alumni Invitational on a picture-perfect evening at Shellenberger Field & Dr. Jack M. Toms Track on Friday evening.

Even with just a small group in attendance, the Highlanders kept the record-setting 2025 campaign rolling with one all-time top 10 performance and two personal bests.
