March 27, 2026 | Track & Field
RALEIGH, N.C. – Lady Vol sophomore Tula Fawbush lowered her personal-best to 10:24.61 in the women's 3,000-meter steeplechase Friday at the Raleigh Relays, improving her standing as the No. 3 performer in Tennessee history.
The Louisville, Kentucky, native opened her outdoor season with a 2.5-second PR, bettering her previous mark of 10:27.11 set in 2025. Her time placed 18th overall at NC State and 17th among collegiate competitors in Raleigh.
UT closed the night with a pair of Lady Vols recording personal bests in the 5,000-meter. Andie-Marie Jones posted a time of 16:08.96, shaving nearly 30 seconds off her previous best and finishing less than 0.5 seconds outside of UT's all-time outdoor top 10. Jaci Sievers clocked 16:31.65, improving her PR by more than 15 seconds.
Additionally, post-collegiate Lady Vol Amelia Wills competed unattached in the 3,000-meter steeplechase. The Great Britain product recorded a lifetime-best 10:06.60 to place eighth overall.
UP NEXT: Tennessee will send a group of sprinters, hurdlers, throwers and jumpers to Gainesville, Florida, for the Pepsi Florida Relays. Competition is set for Friday and Saturday, April 3-4, at the University of Florida's James G. Pressly Stadium.
