Lynchburng, Va. - Redshirt sophomore Tyler Samotis equaled his personal best to win the men's pole vault, and freshman Tyler Craig captured second place in the same event to lead Gardner-Webb's track & field squad at the Liberty Quad meet on Monday.

The meet, hosted by Liberty University, was rescheduled to Monday from its original date due to the recent winter storm.

In the men's pole vault, Samotis and Craig led Gardner-Webb, scoring a 1-2 finish in the men's pole vault. Samotis (Hendersonville, N.C.) led the way with a 1st place finish by clearing a personal best 4.90 m during the jump-off, while Craig (Talking Rock, Ga.) placed 2nd by clearing the 4.80 m mark.

In the women's pole vault, freshman Elise Moffatt (Kennessaw, Ga.) cleared 3.45 m to tie for 5th place, adding to the impressive weekend for the Runnin' Bulldogs.

Freshman Jordan Davis (Atlanta, Ga.) reached finals in the women's 60 m Dash by running 8.08 during prelims and improved on her prelims time to place 7th with a finals time of 8.06.

Davis also placed 7th in the women's 200 m Dash, timing in at 26.46 to give the Runnin' Bulldogs another Top 8 individual finish.

In the women's high jump, freshman Kayin Mujahid placed 8th, clearing 1.55 m in the event. Mujahid (Philadelphia, Penn.) entered Monday's meet with a Top 5 high jump time in the Big South this season, having achieved her personal best mark (1.70 m) at the JDL Hilton Garden Invitational.
