Cook Qualifies for NAIA Steeplechase at Oregon Twilight

COMPLETE RESULTS

EUGENE, Ore.  – Senior Kaitlin Cook got a little dose of Hayward Field magic on Friday night, claiming her first NAIA track & field championship qualification.
 
A handful of Beacons were able to perform close to home in the country's premiere track & field stadium, and endured an unrelenting rain and wind storm throughout the evening.
 
For Cook (pictured, right), her time of 11:22.58 in the 3000m Steeplechase took a substantial 17 seconds off of her previous best and was good enough to hit the NAIA National "B" qualifying standard. Already a qualifier for next week's CCC Championship, she moved into fourth place on the conference performance list.
 
On the men's side, the big highlight came from freshman Brodie Riscili (pictured, left) who withstood the conditions to nail a new personal best in the Discus with a toss of 36.26m (118'11").
 
The Beacons aren't done for this weekend with a large contingent competing on Saturday at the Linfield Invitational in McMinnville for their final regular season event.
