Emory University freshman Daniel Pietsch recorded the best time by an Eagle this season in the 200-meter dash at the Catamount Classic in Cullowhee, North Carolina last weekend. Pietsch placed 13th in the event with a time of 22.11 seconds, a six-tenths of a second improvement on his previous top time, and the third-best mark in the University Athletic Association this year. He added an eighth-place finish in the 400-meter dash with a time of 49.04 seconds, his third best mark of the season in the event, and behind only his two top times in the UAA rankings. Pietsch and the Eagles finished fifth in the team standings at the meet.
