Duke InvitationalLiberty Flames Invitational
Meet Preview:
This weekend the UMBC Outdoor Track and Field squad will split up the ranks to
attend both the Duke Invite and the Liberty Flames Invite. The majority of athletes
will head down to North Carolina while the throwers, pole vaulters, and decathletes
will attend the meet at Liberty.
The track will hold most of the action at the Duke Invitational. Last weekend
Mercedes Jackson took the win the 100 meters and will look to continue that streak
this weekend while getting help from Ebonique Jones, currently the ladies sit
second and third respectively in the early season conference rankings. For the men,
Sean Cooper dipped under eleven seconds for the first time with a 10.98, and will
look to continue his success that has led him to fourth in both the 100 meters and
200 meters in the Conference. In the long sprint action, the women dominate the
400 meter Conference rankings with three women in the top four including
Deborah Adelola, Kalane Abbey, and Kirsten Jones.
The distance runners will be out in full force this weekend with most events under
the lights on Friday. Andrew Smith will be making his outdoor debut in the 800
meters after finishing fourth in the Conference during the indoor season. Cody
Mezebish will also run the 800 meters after finishing fifth in the event during the
indoor Conference meet. Fresh off his first collegiate victory, Brandan McGee willtoe the line in the 5,000 meters, while TJ Cowing should make an early season
impact in the 10,000 meters.
At Liberty, watch for Malte Bertram to make his decathlon debut for the Retrievers
after finishing second in the Heptathlon at the indoor conference meet. Expect
Aaron Brooks, Cameron McDearmon, Amanda Deller, and Chrissy Robinson to not
only continue their well rounded success but have break out performances.

Athlete Spotlights
Brandan McGee:
One of the leading runners since he stepped on campus as a freshman last year, he led
the Retrievers through the cross country season and put up a team leading mark in the
5,000 meters during the indoor season. Already sitting number three on the All Time
5,000 meter and number five on the All Time Steeple list, McGee will be looking to mov
up both over the next two weeks. Entered in the 5,000 meter run this weekend, he is
coming off his first collegiate victory, stealing the 3,000 meters at the Maryland Invite,
closing in a 2:09 last 800 meters to move up to number four on the All Time list.
Sean Cooper:
After training through last year, Sean Cooper has proved himself to be the leader of the
sprint group during the indoor season, including qualifying for the IC4A meet in the 200
meters. He started off his outdoor campaign in grand fashion setting a personal best
10.98 in the 100 meter dash while putting up Conference level marks in the 200 meters
and Long Jump.
Inside the Numbers:
The number of seconds that lies between Imani Colbert and becoming the first UMBC
Retriever to clock a sub fourteen second clocking in the 110m/100m hurdles event. Last
weekend Colbert bested her own school record that had stood since her freshman year..03
