CLEVELAND, TN -- This weekend, the Bees have a split squad, with one group competing at the Fast Break Athletics Invitational, hosted by Lee University. The Invitational always bring some highly competitive programs to Cleveland, with an abundance of NCAA Division I and II programs in attendance. This was an opportunity for SCAD to best their past performances and add to their plethora of Appalachian Athletic Conference qualifying marks. 

Junior Avery Raymond took advantage on the 10,000 Meter field. Programs like University of the Cumberlands and Lipscomb University, gave Raymond the environment to snag not only an AAC qualifying time, but also an NAIA qualifying mark. The Bees as a whole raced to 10 AAC qualifying performances.
