TAMPA, Fla. – The Wisconsin women’s track and field team opened their outdoor season at the USF Alumni Invitational, highlighted by two top‑ten marks in the Badger record book.

The 4×100‑meter relay of Luciana Aizpurua, Sydney Robinson, Catalina Sanchious, and Rachel Robinson raced together for the first time and immediately stamped their names into program history. The quartet crossed the line in 46.03 seconds, moving to No. 9 all‑time at Wisconsin and placing 12th overall in the event. 

Hadley Lucas added another top-ten mark with a personal best in the discus. She threw 171 feet (52.12m) to place eighth, a mark that moves her to No. 8 in the UW record book. She was followed by Zonica Lindeque, who placed ninth with a toss of 167‑11 (51.18m).
