ATLANTA – Mercer's 4x100m Relay squad logged a season-best time of 48.22 seconds on the way to a top-20 finish, while the Bears also posted a 12^th-place showing while debuting its 4x400m Relay quartet, as the Orange & Black wrapped up competition at the Georgia Tech Invitational on Saturday.

Personal bests sprayed over into the individual events as well with freshman Melissa Ubani logging a personal best time amid competition in the 200m Dash. Junior Ariel Raggs turned in the best finish of the day for the Bears with a 14^th-place tally in the 400m Hurdles.

Mercer will close out its regular season schedule next weekend, April 26-27, when it heads to Jacksonville, Fla., for the North Florida-hosted East Coast Relays. The 2024 Southern Conference Championships are scheduled for May 4-7 in Birmingham, Ala.
