The Jackrabbits finished the Drake Relays with another top-10 list addition in the women's DMR

DES MOINES, Iowa - The South Dakota State track and field teams finished their last day in Iowa, scoring the No. 2 all-time mark in the women's distance medley relay.

The squad finished seventh overall (11:35.67) with two Iowa and two Minnesota natives in the relay, leading with freshman Ellie Friesen starting (1,200m, 3:38.01) and senior Krista Steele taking over in the second leg (400m: 58.11). The second half was started by sophomore Oksana Covey running the third leg (800m: 2:10.33) and senior Rachel King finishing things up (1,600m: 4:49.24).

King capped off another great weekend by anchoring the DMR squad with a 4:49.24 1,600m split. She is now a member of the top-two teams SDSU has had in the event, anchoring school-record team from the 2018 Drake Relays and the No. 2 all-time this year.

On Friday, the senior highlighted the individual tab of Jackrabbit action, posting her second consecutive personal-best reset in the 1,500m to remain No. 2 all-time for SDSU and hold onto the No. 1 spot on The Summit League's performance list. She led a majority of the race but finished runner-up (4:25.12) to come within 2.31 seconds from the school record held by Becka Manshiem (2007).

Sophomore Trent Francom was the lone Jackrabbit recording a mark in the field events, finishing fourth overall in the pole vault competition (16-02.75) with his fifth event of the season. Last year at Drake, he first reset the school record (17-02.75) and has since reset it to 17-05.00.

The men's distance medley finished eighth (10:00.97), consisting of sophomore Gabe Peters, junior Wyatt Gatrost, freshman Riley Bauer, and senior Kyle Burdick.

RECAPPING THE WEEKEND
Thursday Recap | Friday Recap | Saturday Recap
Friday - The Jacks posted a school-record mark in the 4x100m relay (40.12) on Friday at Drake alongside a Houston squad in the opening heat of the preliminaries. Overall, SDSU had the third-best mark out the round, second-best mark among "next-fastest" qualifying spots, to place fifth in the overall prelims. (Fr. Emmanual Phoulom-Smith, So. Coby Hilton, So. Daniel Clarke, Jr. Sam Zenner)

This is the second career 4x100m relay race that Phoulom-Smith has been a member of. The squad opened the season with the school's No. 2 all-time mark at the Pacific Coast Intercollegiate last weekend (40.55).

A majority of the squad is the same from last year's two-time record setting team (Hilton, Jr. Landon Larson, Clarke, Zenner). Throughout the 2018 season, the men's 4x100m relay team added the second-best mark (40.94) all-time at Drake before resetting the school record at Nebraska (40.84) and ending with the Summit League Championship record and pushing the SDSU record for the second time (40.40).

With the time of 40.12 seconds, the Jackrabbits reset the state collegiate record by 0.01 seconds and are now ranked No. 17 in the NCAA West Preliminary performance list, with the top-24 competing in Sacramento, Calif. for a chance to earn a trip to Austin, Texas for the NCAA Championships.

Looking back, SDSU's mark would have qualified to the NCAA preliminaries each of the last five years and if it holds up, they will be the first relay team onto the NCAA DI regional preliminaries (worst seed times on the West Prelims start list: 2018 - 40.24, 2017 - 40.29, 2016 - 40.22, 2015 - 40.38, 2014 - 40.47).

The men's 4x800m relay squad reset both the school and South Dakota state collegiate records with a seventh-place finish at Drake Stadium on Friday evening (seventh, 7:27.27). The previous state record was 7:30 and the school record was previously 7:32 (Jr. Wyatt Gatrost, Sr. Cal Lawton, So. Derek Boekelheide, Fr. Riley Bauer).

Lawton ran the second leg with a split of 1:49.07 to move up seven places into third - a mark that would be the school's No. 2 all-time 800m mark - while Bauer closed the relay with a 1:51.46 split - a mark that would have been No. 8 all-time.

Junior Haley Mottinger was one of the first Jackrabbits to climb an all-time list on Friday, posting a 0.22-second personal-best reset, her second of the season, to climb from No. 6 all-time to No. 3 behind teammate Jaymie O'Connor and Jennifer Stovall (2002).

At the beginning of this year, she had a personal-best mark of 14.73w (2018 NSU Twilight) and has since cut 0.69 seconds.

She had done the same sort of thing during the 2019 indoor campaign, entering the 60m hurdles all-time list at the SDSU Holiday Invite at No. 6 all-time (8.81). Before the start of the indoor season, she had a PR of 8.97, her only mark sub-nine seconds.

Also on Friday at the Kip Janvrin Open, junior Micah Mather, along with eight other Jackrabbits, added personal-best marks at Simpson College.

Mather cut 4.39 seconds to reset his personal-best mark in the 3,000m steeplechase for his fourth career runner-up finish in the event (9:07.89). The junior is only 1.89 seconds from the school's top 10 list, a list that hasn't been touched since 2011.

The men's and women's 5,000m tallied five total personal-best marks for the Jacks as freshmen duo Thomas Breuckman (second, 14:51.10) and Lukas Pierson (18th, 15:28.73) were able cut 11.94 and 5.81 seconds, respectively.

Sophomore Cailee Peterson led the women (fifth, 17:56.68) while pairing with junior Emma Nelson (ninth, 18:17.04) to reset their personal-best marks for second time this season.

Freshman Blake Iverson scored a personal-best mark, resetting his best from the South Dakota Challenge by 0.59 seconds, while senior Rachel Propst added her fourth consecutive personal-best reset of the season by 0.98 seconds. In all, the senior has trimmed 7.26 seconds from her best prior to the season (2016 Jim Duncan Invite, 4:52.23).

Thursday - Senior Kyle Burdick attempted his first 5,000m race of the season, now sitting atop The Summit League outdoor performance list. The Rapid City, S.D. native scored the league's No. 1 mark of the season by 16.27 seconds, still 2.97 seconds from his personal-best and No. 3 all-time SDSU mark (his mark tonight would be No. 3 all-time as well), with a fifth-place overall finish (14:03.76) in the seeded race.

Burdick was the third-best college competitor in the race and helps the Jacks dominate the league's top-five 5,000m performers as four of the are in Yellow and Blue uniforms (1. Burdick, 3. Fr. Joseph Minor-Williams, 4. Jr. Micah Mather, 5. Jr. Lukas Nelson).

As of last night, the senior is also 49th in the NCAA West Preliminary performance list, one spot out of the top-48 that compete in Sacramento, Calif. in late May for a chance to the NCAA Track and Field Championships in June. He's qualified for the 5,000m race at the West Prelims since 2017.

For the women, the Jackrabbit duo in senior Emily Berzonsky (11th, 36:33.86) and sophomore Anna Donnay (14th, 36:58.24) ran personal-best marks in the open 10,000m at Iowa's capital. Both are within a minute of the school's all-time top-10 list (10th-best, 36:13.82), last entered in 2015 (Jenna Grossenburg).

Freshman Riley Bauer tallied the lone Jackrabbit win at the Distance Carnival in Des Moines, scoring his second career win in the unseeded 800m on Thursday night. Bauer scored the No. 10 all-time mark for SDSU to get the individual crown on the distance carnival night at the Blue Oval (won, 1:51.50). He bumped off teammate Wyatt Gatrost's personal-best mark off the list, which he added at the Mike Fanelli Classic to kick off the season.

Freshman Joseph Minor-Williams record his first 10,000m for the men at the distance carnival, 7.44 seconds from the school's top-10 all-time list (fifth, 30:18.34).
