Raleigh Relays Results | Navy Invitational Results
George Washington's men's and women's outdoor track teams opened the 2018 outdoor season over the weekend by competing in a pair of meets at the Raleigh Relays in Raleigh, North Carolina, on Friday and the Navy Invitational in Annapolis, Maryland, on Saturday.
The highlight of the weekend came on the men's side as senior Carter Day smashed the program record for the 5,000 meters at the Raleigh Relays. Day ran to a time of 14:22.45, besting the previous mark of 14:35.04 (Ryan Tucker) that has stood since spring of 2016. The time also shattered Day's previous personal record by 80 seconds.
Including Day's record-setting time, a total of 12 new personal records were set over the weekend with five coming from the men's squad and seven from the women's team.
