Wolf Pack at Brutus Hamilton Invitational

RENO, Nev.  – Nevada's women's track and field team wraps up the 2018-19 regular season this week, traveling to Berkeley, Calif. for Cal's Brutus Hamilton Invitational. The meet will be the last competition before the Wolf Pack travels to Fresno, Calif. for the Mountain West Championships.
 
The Pack will look to carry over some of the momentum from last week, where the team had several athletes re-write all-time lists. Sophomore Nicola Ader moved up on all-time lists for three different events, including a school record in the long jump and a national top-10 mark in the heptathlon. Senior Lindsey Sickler and sophomore Morgin Coonfield moved up in the 5,000m and 3,000m steeplechase, respectively. Coonfield and Sickler's steeplechase personal records, both set within the last month, are leading the Pack to a fifth-place ranking nationally in the event.
 
Freshman Gabby Fraser improved her mark on the triple jump all-time list and senior Emily Etter moved up in the pole vault. The 4x400m relay team of sophomore Lauren Green, freshman Emily Costello, junior Karoline Sauer and senior Zanae Jones clocked the ninth-fastest time in school history.
 
Looking ahead to the Mountain West Championships, the Pack has a total of 13 athletes in the top 10 of the conference for 14 different events. Leading the way is Ader, who currently sits in the top 10 for four events, including leading the conference in both the high jump and the heptathlon. Costello sits atop three events, ranking 10th in the 100m and 400m races, on top of a seventh-place rank in the 200m.
 
The Pack has three athletes ranked in the top 10 of the javelin, the most for any event. Sophomore Alex Bohlman leads the conference, and freshmen Gaia Osborne and Anna Maria Sommerfeld sit in fifth and seventh, respectively. Sommerfeld sits in ninth in the heptathlon as well.
 
Sauer paces the conference in the 400m hurdles, with sophomore Agnese Mulatero joining her in the top 10.
 
Nevada has several near the top for distance events as well. Coonfield sits in the top 10 for both the 10,000m and the 3,000m steeplechase, while Sickler sits in the top five of both the 3,000m steeplechase and the 5,000m. Sophomore Hiley Dobbs is in the top 10 of the 10,000m as well.
 
Junior Gaby Palmer and senior Emily Etter are both in the top 10 of the pole vault, and freshman Gabby Fraser is ranked 10th in the triple jump.
 
The meet begins Friday, with the hammer kicking things off at 11:00 a.m. PT. Live results available online at nevadawolfpack.com/tf.
