CEDAR FALLS, Iowa — The UNI track and field team will kick off the final month of the indoor regular season this weekend with Panthers set to compete at Nebraska's Larry Sevigne Husker Invitational, as well as the Iowa State Classic in Ames.

The Panthers return to action after a strong weekend showing at Notre Dame and Wartburg a week ago, where they earned two event wins along with multiple career-bests, season-bests and a pair of school records being broken.
At the Meyo Classic in South Bend, Ameila Hill and Colin Lillie both set new 5,000-meter program records, with Lillie taking third place in the men's race in 14:20.39, while Hill finished in eighth in 16:38.92.
At the Friday Knight Lights in Waverly, Josey Dunbar and Maleah Walker earned first and second place finishes in the 60-meter hurdles finals as they both posted career-best times of 7.75 and 7.83 respectively. In the women's shot put, Brylie Lorence (45' 9 ¾), Lexy Foster (44' 11 ¾), and Lauren Kounkel (43' 4 ¼) finished first, second and third respectively. Daniel Adams ran the 60-meter hurdles for the Panthers, where he earned a second-place finish in 8.34 seconds, with Colin Buch not far behind, finishing in 8.65 for a sixth-place finish.
