LINCOLN, Neb. - A quartet of Kansas State women posted top five finishes as the Wildcat women's track and field team combined for 37 points to finish the 2003 NCAA MidWest Track and Field Regional in third place with a two-day total of 53 points.
Host team Nebraska finished with 103 points to capture the regional followed by Big 12 champions Texas in second with 96.
Senior and 11-time All-American Amy Mortimer once again led the Wildcat attack, taking the 1500 meters with a season-best and Ed Weir track record time of 4:16.89 that was just 11 10th of a second off her K-State record time in the event of 4:16.78.
The majority of K-State's remaining points came in the field events. Junior Morgan High, who tied for second at the Big 12 Championships in the high jump just two weeks ago, captured the regional title by clearing 5-10.50. Chaytan Hill just missed making it a trifecta of gold for the Cats, taking second in the triple jump with a personal-best leap of 44-10.25 to finish.75 of an inch behind event winner Ineta Radevica of Nebraska.
Rebekah Green followed up her second-place finish in the shot put during Friday's competition with a fifth in the hammer Saturday. Green's throw of 175-07 was less than five feet off a top-3 finish. Jen Allen of Montana State captured the event with a toss of 191-09.
On the men's side, the Wildcats picked up four points to place 30th overall. The 4x100 relay as the team of Will Jones, Pat Agwu, Dusty McDonald and Joseph Bennett posted a time of 40.70 to take sixth while Erik Sproll took eighth in the 800 meters with a clocking of 1:51.43.
The Kansas State men's and women's track and field team will close out its 2003 outdoor campaign, June 11-14 at the NCAA Division I National Championships in Sacramento, Calif.
