MONMOUTH, Ill. - Closing out the regular season at the Roger Haynes Invitational, William Woods continued to build momentum heading into the AMC Indoor Track and Field Championship meet with 16 new personal bests and two top-five WWU marks in the meet. Spencer Yoggerst continued to shine in the field for Woods, earning PRs in both the weight throw and shot put, with his mark of 16.18m in the weight throw good for fourth in the WWU record books.

"This was a nice way to finish the regular season heading into the AMC indoor championships next weekend," said head coach Dan Schwab. "Jacob Polacek had a great run in the 60 meter dash, running a new PR and putting his name into the WWU top-five. Spencer Yoggerst also had a great meet with a PR and notching his name in the WWU top-five in the weight throw."

Running in the 60 meters, Polacek set his first new PR in the preliminaries, advancing to the finals with a mark of 7.32 seconds. Buoyed by the impressive showing, Polacek trimmed nearly two-tenths of his earlier time, finishing sixth with a mark of 7.16, the second-fastest time in the AMC.

Madison Dixon also hit a double PR in the women's 60 meters, advancing to the finals with an 8.33 in the prelims and bettering it in the finals with a time of 8.25, good for a fifth-place finish.

Allison Kenneavy and Jenna Mason both had solid outings in the weight throw for William Woods, with both earning new PRs. Kenneavy posted a mark of 12.62m, improving her career mark by nearly a meter.

Heidi Baranauskas solidified her place the top-five in the AMC POP list with her new PR of 4.99m in the long jump, with the sophomore also holding the second-best mark in the triple jump this season.

Jacob Mandrell and Charles Pickens leapt into the top-five in the conference with new PRs in the Triple Jump, with Mandrell hitting a 12.57m mark and and Pickens leaping 12.40m.

The Owls return to Elsah, Ill., next week for the AMC Indoor Track and Field Championship.
