BUFFALO – Freshman Bridget Kennedy set another program record for the St. Bonaventure women's track team Saturday at the UB Team Invitational.
Kennedy continued to be impressive in sprints this spring for the Bonnies, setting a new program-best time in the 200 meters with her run of 27.79. That mark easily bested the previous top time on the board for Bona's of 29.35 owned by Tristen Reid.
Kennedy now owns both the 200 and 400 program records. Saturday, she ran a 400 time of 1:02.70, just off her program record mark of 1:02.25 set on the same course earlier this season.
In the 1500 meters, Lindsey Clawson rises to sixth overall in program history with an effort of 5:04.57, five seconds better than her performance just two days earlier in the event. In all, seven Bonnies set personal bests in the 1500.
Clawson also led the Bonnies in the 800 meters, finishing in 2:32.01.
The Bonnies are back in action Friday in Rochester.
