MSU Qualifies 16 for Regional Meet
5/19/2009 12:00:00 AM | Track & Field
Athletes can qualify for the regional competition in two ways – win a conference individual title or get a regional qualifying mark during the season. Seniors Dan Johnson (400), Ellie Rudy (pole vault) and sophomore Kirsten Lee (discus) all qualify as conference champions. Rudy is the only one of the three that had a qualifying mark coming into the Big Sky Conference Championships last week.
There is no 10K at the regional level, meaning that senior Elisabeth Driscoll, who won the 10K at the conference meet, would have to qualify for the NCAA championships by making the cut on a national descending order list for that event.
The following Bobcats are qualified for the regional meet by virtue of their marks. The regional qualifying standard and each athlete’s mark are listed.
