DELAWARE- The Wilmington College men's and women's track and field teams competed in the All-Ohio Outdoor Track and Field Championship hosted by Ohio Wesleyan University on Saturday. Both teams finished the championship in 14th place- the women with 14 points and the men with 20 points.

HOW IT HAPPENED

• Junior Pierce Burnam (New Richmond, OH/New Richmond) turned in one of the highest-place finish for the Fightin' Quakers over the course of the meet. Burnam finished the men's 400-meter hurdles in a time of 53.62 to earn second.
