Coleman, a junior from Warrenton, Va., earns her second straight ODAC weekly honor after challenging Division III history among her three races at the VertKlasse Meeting hosted by High Point University. Coleman finished eighth overall in the 100-meter dash in the largely Division I and II heavy competition. Her time of 11.63 seconds ties the ODAC and Bridgewater program records set by Amber Celen in 2017. Not only is it the top time in Division III this season by 0.25 seconds, but it is the best time posted by any D-III sprinter in five years. The last time a runner posted a time faster than Coleman's this weekend was in 2018 by Wadeline Jonathas (11.41) from UMASS Boston and Tyra Abraham (11.58) from Claremont-Mudd-Scripps. Coleman also competed in the 4x100-meter and 4x400-meter relays. The Eagles team of Haleigh Hamlin, Jade Buckles, Kacee Hooker, and Coleman posted an eighth place time of 48.34 seconds, good for #1 in the ODAC and 10th in the country. Buckles, Hooker and Coleman were joined by Cassidy Oliver in the 4x400m relay and posted a time of 4:08.92 to finish 19th overall. That mark is fourth in the league table.
