Wildcats set new PRs at UNLV Invitational
3/21/2021 10:48:00 AM | Women's Track & Field
LAS VEGAS, NV - The Wildcats competed well at the UNLV Spring Invitational in sunny Las Vegas from March 18th-20th. Weber State had many great individual performances, which led to the Wildcats' third place team finish.
"The conditions were very windy at 20 mph, and then 23 mph in the afternoon. The wind really wrecks havoc on the throws, long and high jumps, but we had some really great efforts," said head coach, Paul Pilkington. "We had some great highlights coming from the field and track events. Lexie Thompson broke the stadium record by 35 seconds with a 16.14. That time is #4 on the all-time list, and currently #2 in the NCAA. Billie Hatch came in second and set a PR."
Day 1 & 2
Sophie Herbert did well in the women's hammer, earning 11th place with a mark of 51.06m. Deidre Wilson came in 14th place with a 48.03m mark, and Alyssa Hansen came in 15th with a 46.85m mark.
Day 3
The Wildcats did well in the women's 5000 meters earning first and second place. Lexie Thompson came in first with a time of 16:14.09, and Billie Hatch finished second with a time of 16:47.30.

Cheyenne Leatham finished first in the women's 1500 meters, crossing the finish line with a time of 4:39.23. Bailey Winter finished fifth with a time of 4:50.90, and Rebekah Geddes finished seventh at 4:52.37. Klarissa Andersen finished in 13th at 5:02.09 and Tess McInelly finished 14th at 5:02.33.

"We had a lot of PRs, including Cheyenne Leatham in the 1500m, Sophia Herbert in the weight throw, and Kapua Poluto in the shot put. Kapua moved up to #8 on the WSU all-time list and her mark is currently #2 in the Big Sky Conference. Liz Fink moved up to #5 in the new javelin, and Paige van Meeteren performed well in the high jump despite the strong winds," said Pilkington. "We've got some work to do in some areas, but I was happy with how the women performed."
