HIGH POINT, North Carolina – Junior Kendall Hobbs raced to a first place finish in the Women's 5,000 Meters as UNCW track and field student-athletes completed the first day of the Bill Webb Combined/Bob Davidson Memorial on Friday at High Point's Vert Stadium.
 
A total of 30 men's teams and 25 women's teams are competing in the two-day meet.
 
Hobbs, who picked up her third event win of the young season, clocked a personal best 17:39.05 over the 5,000 Meters to finish ahead of High Point's Anna Ritter at 17:40.60.
 
In other action, Seahawk freshman Miles Higgins continued his impressive start to the outdoor campaign. He finished second in the Men's Javelin with a personal-best toss of 214-1, trailing only North Carolina's Roman Mitchell (222-8). Sophomore Ryan DeBarber came in fifth with a toss of 187-4.
 
After four events in the women's heptathlon, freshman Brylee Montanari of UNCW stands fourth overall with 2,333 points. Another newcomer, Riley Gibbons, totaled 2,199 points for sixth place.
