SEATTLE – Highlighted by a win in the high jump from Ann Wingeleth, the Oregon State track & field team had a strong showing at the indoor season opener in Seattle during the UW Preview held at the Dempsey Indoor Center.

"Today showed how far we have come in one year as a program," said second year head coach Louie Quintana. "Last year we were competing hard, but finishing toward the bottom of the results. Today, we had a few wins and established some momentum that we will use through this indoor campaign."

The Beavers had a great day individually setting 15 all-time marks in the Oregon State record books, which included the event win from Wingeleth. The redshirt junior missed on her first two attempts, but connected on the third for a personal best clear of 5-feet, 9.25-inches. Freshman Emma Nelson had a great showing in her first meet for the Beavers with an 8^th place finish off a jump of 5-feet, 3-inches.

Sophomore Rebecca Ledsham ran fantastically in the 800 meters recording the No. 2 all-time mark in the event in OSU history. Ledsham placed 6^th overall with a time of 2-minutes, 12.05-seconds. Maddie Fuhrman managed the No. 10 all-time mark with a time of 2-minutes, 19.75-seconds.

Oregon State had all of its entries make the top 10 in the shot put. Redshirt freshman Keely McLaughlin paced the group placing fourth overall with her throw of 46-feet on the nose. That mark launched her up the Oregon State record books to the No. 2 all-time.

Redshirt freshman Taylor Crockem and Sydney Guthrie-Baker finished in eighth and ninth place, respectively. Crockem's throw of 43-feet, 5-inches, in her first meet for the Beavers, gave her the fourth-best mark in the event in OSU history.

Saskia McNairy recorded a third place finish in the long jump, an event with more than 30 entrants. McNairy, on her final attempt, jumped to the tune of 18-feet, 2.25-inches, more than five inches ahead of fourth place.

Other all-time marks recorded by the Beavers on Saturday:

60m: No. 5 Lauren Miller, 7.88
60m Hurdles: No. 6 Claire Corbitt, 9.32
200m: No. 4 Lauren Miller, 25.39
400m: No. 8 Tarisa Olinski, 58.72

4x400m: No. 4 (Tarisa Olinski, Rebecca Ledsham, Rachel Krill, Maddie Fuhrman), 4:01.85

"Like with any track meet, we are leaving with a list of things to work on and improve," said Quintana. "I'm immensely confident in our student athletes and fine coaching staff that we will return to Seattle in two weeks even more ready."
