The Mount St. Mary's men's and women's track and field teams are competing at the prestigious Penn Relays this week.  The Mount will have student-athletes competing in the decathlon, the relays, and the long jump.

Tim Nickas is hoping to continue the Mount's strong tradition in the Penn Relays decathlon.  Last year, Tom FitzSimons was the winner in the decathlon, giving the Mount a record 10th winner of the event.  The Relays decathlon record of 7700 points was set by the Mount's William Motti 1985, the first year of the scoring tables currently in use. 

The Mount's women's 4x100m and 4x400m relay teams are competing on Thursday.  The 4x400m squad consists of Ashley DeCruise, Ashlyn DeCruise, Desi Scott and Lily Otu while the 4x100m quartet includes the DeCruise sisters, Otu and Chantel Lipkins.

The men's 4x100m and 4x400m relay teams are in action on Friday.  The 4x100m squad includes Quinton Huguley, Chris Brewington, Tyler Swope and Tom FitzSimons while the 4x400m team has Jason Kymingham, Gigi Gibilisco, Brewington and FitzSimons.

Huguley is also in the long jump at the Penn Relays.
