SPRINGFIELD, Ohio – The Wilmington College women's track & field team took part in a sizable and very competitive field of athletes at Wittenberg. The packed house at The Steemer provided personal bests and top place finishes.
Milena Wahl continued a successful indoor season as she placed seventh in the 5000-meter run in a personal best time of 18:44. In the same race, Kaitlyn Rauch had a personal best time as well, running 23:58. The 4x200 squad of Kylee Schafer, Madison Dietz, Rachel Spanfellner and Jenna Victor placed fourth crossing the line in 1:54.
Along with the relay, Madison Dietz stayed busy in the sand pit with a fourth place finish in triple jump and a third place finish in long jump. The third place finish in long jump was done so with a lifetime best jump of 17' 2". Kayli Sullivan rounded out the day for the Quakers with a second place finish in shot put (38' 11") and a fourth place finish in weight throw (47').
Wilmington will have a weekend off followed by Indoor All-Ohio in Westerville, Ohio, on Feb. 12.
