NEW ORLEANS, La. – Six individuals or relays from the St. Olaf College women's track and field team landed All-North Region honors from the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) for the 2026 indoor season, as announced recently.

Senior Ashlyn Jore, first year Claire Stein, senior Lauren Walda, first year Annika Walsh, and senior Isabel Wyatt, as well as St. Olaf's distance medley relay of senior Grace Moeller, sophomore Alice Wagner-Hemstad, junior Nora Mickelson, and senior Ella Landis, were honored after finishing among the top eight in the region in an event this season. All of the Oles' honorees picked up their first all-region accolades, except for Wyatt, who was recognized for the second season in a row in the 800-meter run.

Jore posted the region's No. 4 mark in the long jump with her school-record leap of 5.63 meters (18' 5 ¾") at the Ole Opener. The senior went on to become St. Olaf's first Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) indoor champion in the event since 1994.

Stein posted the North Region's No. 7 pentathlon score this season with a converted total of 3,448 points at the MIAC Indoor Championships. Walsh checked in with the fifth-best clearance in the high jump in the region by clearing 1.65 meters (5' 5") as part of the pentathlon at the MIAC Indoor Championships.

On the track, Wyatt's converted time of 2:11.10 from the Wartburg Final Qualifier was the top time in the region this season. Walda clocked in with the No. 8 time in the 5,000-meter run with a converted time of 17:19.63 at the Midwest Elite Invitational. St. Olaf's DMR of Moeller, Wagner-Hemstad, Mickelson, and Landis finished No. 7 in the region (12:24.39 converted).
