PHILADELPHIA – The Florida State track and field teams closed out the 130th Penn Relays with Rylee Blade setting a new program record for the Seminoles on Thursday at Franklin Field.
True freshman Blade set a new school record in the women's 5,000-meters, establishing a personal best with a time of 15:29.45. Blade erased the time that was set by Lauren Ryan in 2022 at 15:30.00. She now leads the ACC and ranks 14th in the NCAA.
Isaac Hirshman Chandler led Florida State in the men's section of 1,500, crossing the line in fourth with a new personal best and sixth-fastest time in program history with a time of 3:42.2.
Leah Taylor competed in the women's 3,000 steeplechase for the second time this season, placing seventh with a new personal best of 10.07.45. Oakley Olson placed 19th at 10:27.01, followed by Ella Menke at 10:28.82.
Suus Altorf finished as the top conference runner in the women's 1,500, placing third with a time of 4:12.32. Nicole Dinan was just shy of a new personal best after finishing in 15th with a time of 4:17.77.
Bieke Schipperen concluded the night with a win in her first ever women's 10,000, finishing with the eighth-fastest time in program history at 3:31.08.
