Acord seized victories in both the long and triple jump events, establishing a record-breaking performance. In the long jump, Acord soared to first place with her third attempt measuring 5.59 meters, surpassing a 13-year-old championship record (5.58m) set by Moravian's Micah Leonard in 2011. She followed up with a triple jump of 11.50 meters, clinching another triumph.

This junior student-athlete adds her name to a long list of River Hawks recognized as the conference's Field Athlete of the Year. She continues a streak, following her teammate Maggie Boyer (2023), and becomes the sixth recipient overall.
