A week after running at the Penn State National Invite, the Retrievers head up to New York City to compete in the Armory Collegiate Invite, which is one of the most prestigious meets in the country. With many Top 25 teams and Nationally Ranked individuals in attendance, coupled with a UMBC team that has either set or almost eclipsed numerous school marks thus far, this weekend could be a historic one for the Track and Field teams. The sprints will be dominated by the veteran women and youth on the men’s side this weekend. All American Mercedes Jackson will look to break through against some of the competition she faced at the National Meet last year. Having set solid marks throughout the season, she looks poised to have national level performance. Dueling school record holders Kirsten Jones (400m) and Paulette Fogle (500m) should challenge their school record marks in their marquee events, while the fast improving Deborah Adelola (500m), Briana Young (400m) and Kalane Abbey (400m) might have the biggest impact for the team at the Conference level. The men will be led by freshman Erick Soetje who looks to move onto the All Time lists in the 400 meter, and veteran Sean Cooper will be continuing his quest to regain IC4A qualifying status. In the distance events Andrew Smith will make a run for a time that would guarantee a spot at the National meet in 800 meters a weekend after setting the 13th best mark in the country last weekend. Jake Albino (Mile/1000m) and Hassan Omar (5,000m) will give another go at setting school marks in their main events after missing out last weekend by a combined total of less than a second. The women will again feature Cody Mezebish and Sarah Daly pulling double duty in both the 1,000 meters and 800 meters, which could end with the fastest two times in school history in both events. Finally watch for the four headed monster in the women’s 5,000 meter with Nicole Dawson, Kirsten McGovern, Harmony Roche, and Sarah Zielinski trying to go under eighteen minutes. The throws will feature the continued success of Thor Serafenas who moved into striking distance of his PR in the weight throw last weekend while the continued maturation of Nmeoma Edokobi into one of the Conference elite. Mo Drammeh will return to competition after training through the past two meets and will be seeking yet another IC4A qualification. Alisha Beeman will return to the casual schedule of individual events competing in the high and long jumps after setting the school mark in the pentathlon.

Kalane Abbey
With so many talented women on this year’s team, sometimes
consistent success gets overlooked. A multi-time scorer at the
Conference meet, Abbey ran a PR of 56.93 at the Outdoor AEC meet
to finish 6th in addition to running a leg on multiple school record 4x400
meter relay. Abbey will look to improve upon her #5 standing in
the AEC from earlier in the year and potentially eclipse her PR from last
year.
