Schaffer, meanwhile, bagged the men's 1,500 with a time of 3:40.89. The previous Bucknell facility record was 3:41.32.

Binghamton's other first-place finisher at Bucknell was freshman Jenna Chan, who took top honors in the 100 hurdles with a time of 14.02.

Finishing in the top three for the Bearcats at Bucknell were junior Carolyn Burnell in the 3,000 steeplechase (10:58.79) and graduate student Brittany Korsah in the triple jump (39-3 ½).
