On Thursday, Ilias Aouani won first in the 10-kilometer. On Friday, Paige Stoner took gold, too. The senior won the women’s 3000-meter steeplechase by 19 seconds, followed by sophomore teammate Laura Dickinson at 10:10.19.

Stoner, a steeplechase All-American, holds the meet record in Charlottesville, Virginia and had already won the event earlier this season at the Virginia Challenge. This is her fourth individual ACC title.

Behind her, Dickinson, finds herself on the podium for just the third time in her young career – the previous two times coming her freshman year. In the men’s event, junior Aidan Tooker was scratched at the starting line due to an injury.

The Orange also added two more finalists to their Saturday slate. Seniors Richard Floyd and Chevis Armstead qualified for the 110m hurdle finals by virtue of their times, while senior Kelvin Almonte’s career-best time of 14.42 was just .01 seconds shy of the top-eight.

Dasia Pressley had herself a season-best as well, finishing with 11.69 seconds in the 100m hurdles, good enough for 11th overall. And in her first ever ACC Outdoor Championship, freshman Alexis Crosby finished 12th in the women’s 400m.

Saturday, Stoner will be competing again, this time in the women’s 5000m. She and sophomore Lauren Bonner have two of the top four times, of players in the event, on the season. Freshman Matthew Scrape will get his first crack at an ACC Outdoor final in the 5000m, with junior Joe Dragon, freshman Noah Beveridge and senior Simon Smith also running in the event for SU.

Sophomore Nathan Henderson will be running in both the 1500m and 5000m tomorrow, the only Orange runner competing in two races just two hours apart.
