Retter capped off a historic senior campaign by capturing the National Championship in the discus throw at the NCAA Championships as she recorded the eighth best throw in Division III history. The Quakertown native bested her conference record with a top distance of 51.46m, which was achieved on her final throw of the event. The senior's top throw destroyed the previous Polisseni Track facility record of 50.93m, while also breaking her own program and conference record in the event. Retter also swept all three of her events at the Outdoor Centennial Championships with gold medals in the discus, shot put and hammer throw. She was recognized as the USTFCCCA Metro Field Athlete of the Year and earned three USTFCCCA All-Region selections. 

Teszler made a name for herself as one of the top 800m runners in the region after an excellent senior campaign. She set a program record in the event with a mark of 2:10.61 at the Widener Invite and garnered All-Metro. She also successfully defended her conference championship in the event with a gold medal finish at the Centennial Conference Championships. Teszler qualified for her sixth-straight NCAA Championship between all three cross country and track & field seasons. The Massachusetts native finished 20th in the 800m run at the national championships.
