GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Third place finishes by Jeremiah Peters and Quamecha Morrison highlighted what Head Coach Donald Cooper called Bethune-Cookman's "best-ever" performance at the Florida Relays this weekend.

Peters  threw a 55'0 ¼" shot put while Morrison posted a 5'9 ¼" high jump. Dominic Harper set a B-CU outdoor pole vault record with a 15-7 while Kelton Williams finished eighth in the high jump with a 6'7".

"We've had some great performance in the past, but this was the best for the entire team," Cooper said. "Great individual performances, but still a lot of room for improvement."

The Wildcats also made their first-ever attempt the 4X100 shuttle hurdle medlay relay, and Morrison, Monae' Nichols, Najah Whitfield and  Tiara Williams clocked a 57.12 that was good enough for ninth place. The Lady Wildcats' 1600 medlay was 10^th (4:03.91) as was the 4X200 (1:36.97).

On the men's side, the 1600 sprint medley team finished fourth in 3:26.07. 

On Friday, Kareem Fair finished 12^th in the 100 (10.47). Lea Tshikaya was fourth in the 400 hurdles at 59.36.

The Wildcats will be in Daytona Beach next, competing at nearby Embry-Riddle next Friday at Saturday.
