» Delaware will head north to Boston to close out the indoor regular-season Friday at the David Hemery Valentine Invite hosted by Boston University.

» The last time the Blue Hens competed was at the Frank Colden Invitational hosted by Ursinus College last Saturday (Feb. 5). The shining moment came in the pentathlon event while three Blue Hens added their names to the top-10 all-time performers' list.

» Headlining the pentathlon event with a personal best and now UD's all-time leader with 3305 points was Alicia Lehman. Lehman had two first-place finishes in the 800 meter run (2:31.20) and long jump (5.63m, 18' 5.75") while taking second in the 60 meter hurdles (9.10), third in the high jump (1.46m, 4' 9.5") and fourth in the shot put (8.36m, 27' 5.25").

» Destiny DeBlock earned 2967 points, where she had two first-place finishes in the 60m hurdles (9.03) and high jump (1.52m, 4' 11.75"), two fifth-place finishes in the shot put (8.22m, 26' 11.75") and long jump (4.68m, 15' 4.25") and a sixth-place finish in the 800m (2:43.75)..

» Mayson Light received 2616 points after she took second place in the long jump (4.90m, 16' 1"), a trio of fifth-place finishes in the 60m hurdles (10.39), high jump (1.40m, 4' 7") and 800m (2:43.73) and seventh in the shot put (8.01m, 26' 3.5").

» DeBlock and Light are now sixth and ninth, respectively, in the program's history books after their performances in the pentathlon.

» Myrissa McFolling-Young won the shot put after tossing 13.83m (45' 4.5") to land in the third in the program's record books.
