Posted Apr 12/10 - Lady Tigers third at Cumberlands track invite
Tiosha Beasley and Tawny Vilchis picked up big points for Campbellsville University, as the Lady Tigers finished third at the University of the Cumberlands track and field invitational Saturday.

Beasley, a Bowling Green freshman, won the triple jump event with a distance of 10.61 meters and finished second in the long jump with a leap of 5.05 meters. Vilchis was second in the 3,000-meter steeplechase with a time of 12:21.51. The three events gave Campbellsville 26 of their 91 points to help push CU to its second Top 3 finish this season.

The Lady Tigers also placed in the Top 3 and set school records in each of their relay events. Beasley teamed up with Toy a Canty, Katlin Prichett and Porshia Hutcherson for a third-place finish in the 4x100 relay with a time of 51.33 seconds.

Fant, Summer Rines and Natasha Janes joined Vilchis in the relay to beat the school record by 55 seconds.

Two other records set during the event were ones broken by the record holder. Fant beat her 400-meter dash record by nearly six-tenths of a second. She finished fifth Saturday with a time of 1:00.03, which beat her time of 1:00.59 from the previous week. She also finished seventh in the 800-meter run with a time of 2:36.68. Ashley Wilson was the other record breaker, topping her discus record by five feet, as she finished fifth Saturday with a throw of 107 feet, 2 inches (32.67 meters).
