June 9, 2007

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – Ashlee Kidd placed third in the women’s 400-meter with a time of 51.61 to lead the Georgia Tech track and field teams on the final day of the NCAA Outdoor Championships.

Kidd, a senior from St. Petersburg, Fla., earned her eighth All-America honor in her illustrious career at Georgia Tech. Her finish also pushed the women’s team into a 19th-place finish at the championships meet.

On the men’s side, senior James Lemons II placed 10th in the men’s triple jump with a mark of 51 feet, 1 ¾ inches. Lemons second jump of the day was his best but was not good enough to land in the top eight.

The women’s team closed out the NCAA Outdoor Championships with three All-Americans and a total of 11 points.
