LAWRENCE, Kan. – The K-State track and field team competed in the KU-KSU-WSU Triangular on Friday (Jan. 12), highlighted by junior Monique Hardy in the women's weight throw, breaking both the K-State school and Triangular meet record at Anschutz Pavilion hosted by Kansas.
Hardy's third throw landed at 22.13m/72-7.25, eight inches further than her previous best of 21.93m/71-11.5, during her time at LSU. She surpasses Janee' Kassanavoid's previous school record set at 21.81m/71-6.75 in 2017 and the meet record in 2016 by Daina Levy from Kansas at 21.35m/70-00.50.
Kansas won the team meet after 31 events with 245.5 points, while K-State finished in second place with 228 points, Wichita State landing in third place with 190.5 points.
The Wildcats claimed 12 first place finishes, seven of them coming from field events, including a sweep of the men's and women's high jump.
Sophomores Aaron Antoine and Sharie Enoe both recorded new personal bests in the high jump, Antoine cleared a height of 2.19m/7-2.25, two inches more than his previous best. Enoe launched herself to no. 4 in the K-State all-time records with a jump of 1.88m/6-2, almost two inches better than her best during her time at New Mexico Highlands.
Other field event winners included seniors Shalom Olotu in the long jump (5.84m/19-2), Kade McCall with a new personal best in the weight throw (21.34m/70-0.25), Jaycee Schroeder in the shot put (15.52m/50-11) and Devon Richardson in the triple jump (14.94m/49-0.25).
On the track, senior Shalysa Wray won both her events, the 60 meter dash (7.52) and the 200 meters (24.67). Junior Darian Clarke claimed a 60 meter dash (6.83) win for himself in a new personal best. Other first place times came from seniors Hannah Stewart in the mile (4:53.70) and Kyle Gale in the 600 yards (1:09.85).
