RALEIGH - The Wake Forest track and field teams wrapped up another weekend of outdoor competition at the Raleigh Relays at NC State this weekend.

On the women's side, five Deacons had top-10 finishes to lead the team. Freshman Emily Campbell had the highest finish out of all the women's team competitors, finishing fourth in the discus college division.

Others that eared top-10 finishes included Hunter Roberts with a seventh place finish in the women's 100m hurdles, Kathryn Lazarchick finishing ninth in the 1500m, and Casidy Callahan and Amy Collins had 10th place finishes in the shot put and high jump respectively.

Jones (7th) and Darling (10th) rank in the top-10 all-time Wake Forest performance list in the 5000m. Lazarchick also ran a lifetime personal best in the 1500m, her second consecutive top performance in as many weeks.

Ionata led the way breaking his previous school record in the hammer throw tossing a distance of 63.13m (207-1 ft). He broke his previous record of 61.30m (201-1 ft) that he set last season at the 2014 Coastal Carolina Invitational.

In addition to Ionata for the men's side, Steve Michaelsen earned a top-five finish in the discus college division finishing in third. John Maurins also had a strong performance in the shot put setting an outdoor personal record and finished in fifth place.

Simon Holden led the way in the running events for the men with two top-five finishes in two different events. He finished second in the 1500m run and third in the 800m run.

Wake Forest will be competing in three track meets next weekend. Those meets include the Florida Relays, the Stanford Invitational, and the High Point University Vertklasse Meeting.
