Dani Bland Notches All-America Honors in 60m & 200m Dashes

Senior Dani Bland wrapped up her tremendous indoor track career on Saturday as she added two more All-America finishes to her career ledger. The 2019 NCAA Division III Indoor Track and Field Championships were being held at the Reggie Lewis Athletic Center in Roxbury, MA.

Bland began the afternoon in the 60m Dash, taking sixth overall with a finals time of 7.75. The sixth place effort gave Bland her first career podium finish in the 60m and the first Emory Women's All-American in the event since Debora Adjibaba finished fifth at the 2014 championship meet.

Two hours later, Bland was back on the track as she claimed her second straight All-America finish in the 200m, recording a season-best effort of 25.05 to take fifth overall. The two podium finishes pushes her career total to a combined 10 All-America awards, extending her program record.

With Bland's scoring finishes in both events, the Eagles tied for 35th at the championship meet with seven team points.
