This past weekend, the TWU indoor track and field program competed in the Appalachian Athletic Conference championships. The Tennessee Wesleyan mens and womens teams both came in 5th in the standings with the men scoring 80 overall points and the women 91 points from all of the events that took place. However, both the men’s and the women’s team found success in specific events over the weekend. KT Buchanan, Jay Ellis, Chris Harper, and Ke’andrae Campbell all came through for the Bulldogs and put them up on the scoreboard. Dakota Caldwell competed in the Mens 5000m Race walk finishing in second place earning them an outstanding 8 points. For the Women, Samantha Degrace took home 1st place in the women’s 100mH earning them 10 points. The men also placed second in the 100 meter relay race giving them another 8 points. Throughout the weekend the Bulldogs had 12 players finish in the top 3 throughout these events, drastically boosting their score. Overall, the weekend was fairly successful for both the men and the women teams leaving room for growth and improvement. The individual success they had will hopefully lead to more team success as the Bulldogs travel down to Cleveland May 10th for the Lee Last Chance Meet.
