ALLIANCE, Ohio – The Wilmington College women's track & field team outperformed the first day of action at the Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC) Indoor Championships with a 20-point day two performance. The Quakers finished in sixth place with 31 points and hosts Mount Union took first place followed by John Carroll and Ohio Northern respectively.
 
Milena Wahl had herself a day with two top eight finishes. First, Wahl took fourth place from behind in the mile with a time of 5:19.14 This mark is second all time for the Quakers and two seconds shy of the school record. Less than 3 hours later, she returned to the track in the 3,000-meter run and placed sixth crossing the line in 10:48.62. This is the second year in a row that she has finished in the top eight in the 3,000-meter run and the first time in the mile.
 
Madison Dietz started the scoring off for Wilmington with a seventh-place finish in triple jump with a leap of 33' 1.25". Shortly after, Kayli Sullivan took fourth in shot put with a toss of 39' .25". Both Sullivan and Dietz scored top eight in two events on the weekend.
 
To finish off the scoring for the Quakers, both relay teams finished in the top eight. First the 4x200 squad made of Kylee Schafer, Lily Williford, Rachel Spanfellner and Dietz came in sixth place. The 4x400 squad made of Schafer, Dietz, Spanfellener and Kolby Gluchowski took seventh place.

Wilmington will continue the indoor postseason with a Last Chance Meet at Ohio Northern next weekend and Indoor Nationals the weekend after in North Carolina.
