The Bruins track and field teams did not let the blistering heat get in their way of putting up great results at the Winthrop Invitational this weekend.

Abby Woo began the meet for the Bruins in the women's javelin throw. She was able to make it out of her flight and into the finals where she came in sixth place with a distance of 28.47 meters.

After a little pause on the track due to heat, the Bruins had quite the busy evening starting with Bri Felter in the women's 200 meter dash. Melody Davis raced right after her in the women's 400 meter hurdles where she shaved two seconds off last weekend's time. Luke VanDenBerghe came next to compete in the men's 1500 meter race where he also took significant time off of his previous race.

• Women's 200 Meter Dash: Bri Felter - 27.72 seconds
• Women's 400 Meter Hurdles: Melody Davis - 1:11
• Men's 1500 Meter Race: Luke VanDenBerghe - 4:57

To end the night, the Bruins distance crew made some noise with great performances. Jacob Doshier represented the Bruins in the men's 3k steeplechase where finished with nearly a 20-second personal best. Lauren Jones and Kristen Dodds competed next in the women's 5k, and both of them finished with personal bests too. And finally, as the sun was setting in Rock Hill, Daniel Kyle closed the night in the men's 5k.

• Men's 3k Steeplechase: Jacob Doshier - 10:25
