Lines Captures Long Jump In Track Opener

CHAPEL HILL, North Carolina – Senior jumper Courtney Lines captured first place in the Long Jump as the UNCW women's track and field team made its season debut on Saturday at the Dick Taylor Carolina Challenge hosted by the University of North Carolina.
 
The Seahawks, who have four in-season meets on the docket, competed against 19 other teams in the event at the Eddie Smith Field House.
 
Lines, from nearby Leland, N.C., turned in a jump of 19-10.25 for first place, beating out Wake Forest's Robbie Grace at 18-07.75. The jump is currently the 18th best in the country.
 
Senior Kendall Hobbs and sophomore Nasiah Ferguson each jumped into the school's top-10 chart in respective events. Hobbs moved into No. 5 with her sixth place finish in the Mile Run (5:10.54) and Ferguson's seventh place finish (41.54) in the 300 Meters places her fifth all-time.
 
The Seahawks also swept the Women's 200 Meters. Junior Mackenzie Townsend (27.55), freshman Brylee Montanari (27.63) and freshman Kaleigh Hudson (27.89) gave UNCW a 1-2-3 finish in the event.
 
"It was a great start for our team," said fourth-year Head Coach Jeff Klaves. "I'm proud of the way they supported each other from start to finish."
 
"Our focus today was simple. We were excited about seeing our newcomers compete for the first time while watching our returners lead by example."
 
The team returns to action on Jan. 19-21, 2023, at the Brant Tolsma Invitational hosted by Liberty in Lynchburg, Va.
