Five from women's track and field post top-10 program marks at Ole Open

NORTHFIELD, Minn. – Five members of the St. Olaf College women's track and field team had five performances that ranked on the program's all-time top-10 list at the Ole Open on Saturday afternoon at Klein Field at Manitou.

Junior Isabel Wyatt, junior Ashlyn Jore, first year Logan Paulsen, first year Izzi Jaeckle, and senior Emma Johnson accounted for the five top-10 performances, as St. Olaf compiled 22 top-five finishes at the unscored meet. The meet was the team's final competition before the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) Outdoor Track & Field Championships. After the meet, the program honored its senior class at the conclusion of their final home meet.

Running in the event for just the second time, junior Isabel Wyatt recorded the fastest time in the conference this season in the 1,500-meter run (4:34.25), a time that ranks ninth on St. Olaf's top-10 list. Senior Alison Bode was the runner-up to Wyatt in 4:35.42, a time topped only by Wyatt's in the MIAC this season.

Senior Sophie Abernethy led a 1-2-3 finish for St. Olaf in the 800-meter run in 2:17.54 for the fifth-fastest time in the conference this season. Senior Jules Fromm (2:18.11) and sophomore Siri Erickson (2:20.06) were the next two finishers after Abernethy.

Junior Aries Mendez added a win in the javelin throw with a mark of 32.59 meters (106' 11") to lead the way for the Oles in the field events. First year Logan Paulsen was second in the discus throw with a distance of 41.34 meters (135' 7"), which ranks fourth in the conference and sixth in program history.

Junior Ashlyn Jore moved up to fourth on the Oles' all-time list in the long jump with a runner-up performance of 5.50 meters (18' ½"), which sits third in the conference. Sophomore Mara Larson registered the second-highest clearance of the day in the high jump (1.53m, 5' ¼").

St. Olaf's other top-10 program marks came from senior Emma Johnson in the hammer throw, as Johnson had a mark of 42.23 meters (138' 6") to sit fifth all-time, and first year Izzi Jaeckle in the 200-meter dash. Jaeckle clocked in at 25.45 seconds to shoot all the way up to third in program history with a fourth-place finish.

The MIAC Outdoor Championships will get underway at Macalester Stadium on Friday, May 9, with field events at 2 p.m. and track events at 2:45 p.m.
