Vashey finished first in the 20-pound weight throw at the Moravian University Blue & Grey Invitational at Lehigh University's Rauch Fieldhouse with an All-Atlantic Regional Track & Field Conference qualifying toss of 16.71 meters (54-10) to tie her school record. Vashey also took fourth in the shot put with a toss of 10.93 meters (35-10.5).
"Kara picked up 2026 right where she left 2025 by equaling her school record in the weight throw at the Blue & Grey Invite this past weekend," stated Assistant Track & Field Throws Coach Jon D'Ottavio. "We knew early in our fall training period that she was dialing in some big throws and she kept that momentum going over the winter break. She's been having some great practices recently and we are excited to see what the rest of the season holds and what she can do as we get deeper into the season."
Moravian is slated to return to competition on Saturday, January 24 as the squad hosts the Hounds Indoor Classic at Lehigh University's Rauch Fieldhouse with action beginning at 10:00 a.m.
