CEDAR FALLS, Iowa — UNI track and field prepares for a full week of competition beginning late Wednesday morning the 114th running of the Drake Relays held at the historic Blue Oval in Des Moines running through Saturday afternoon. The Panthers will also send a delegation to nearby Simpson College in Indianola for the Kip Janvrin Open on Thursday and Friday at Buxton Stadium.
As the outdoor conference championships approach, the Panthers look to continue to build on their momentum from eight individual titles last weekend in Coralville at Iowa's Musco Twilight, along with four individual victories by athletes who competed unattached.
On the track, Paige Kisley won the 100-meter hurdles with a winning time of 14.43 seconds. UNI also swept the top five positions in the women's 100-meter dash with Madelyn Sanda topping the field in 12.02 seconds. Hunter Manock won the men's 110-meter hurdles title in 14.58 seconds, as Zach Butcher (unattached) finished first in the men's 200-meter dash in a personal-best time of 21.84.
In the men's 100 meters, Tinashe Chigudu and Luke Meyers, both competing unattached, finished first and second with times of 10.67 and 10.70. Joey Perry (58.60) and Auriona Kimbrough (59.67) took home first and second place in the women's 400-meter dash.
Sophia Jungling came out on top in the women's 800-meter field with a new season-best mark of 2:10.25. Running the distance, in the women's 1,500 meters Emma Hoins (4:31.66) recorded a new season-best time to secure first place for the purple and gold. Brooke O'Brien meanwhile won the women's 3,000-meter run in a career-best time of 10:37.05.
In the field events, Josey Dunbar led the way for UNI with a first-place finish in the women's long jump with a 5.38-meter leap, while Alivia Silverstri (unattached) notched a season-best mark of 3.60 meters in the women's pole vault to win the event. Katie Fare (unattached) won the women's shot put with a toss of 16.39 meters.
