SACRAMENTO – The Oregon State track and field team finished up competition at the NCAA West Preliminary Championships on Saturday in Sacramento after three days of competition.

Ann Wingeleth, high jump, was the only student-athlete for the Beavers to qualify through to the NCAA Championships in Austin, Texas on June 5-8.

Freshman Grace Fetherstonhaugh crushed the Oregon State school record in the 3,000-meter steeplechase on Friday evening. Fetherstonhaugh ran to a 14th place finish, nearly qualifying to the NCAA Championships, and to a school record with a time of 10-minutes, 3.13-seconds.

In the final event of the weekend for the Beavers, Lexi Reed ran the second-fastest time in OSU history and a personal best in the 5,000 meters. Reed finished in 22nd place overall with a time of 16-minutes, 11.01-seconds.

A pair of Beavers wrapped up their season in the shot put on Saturday in Keely McLaughlin and Taylor Crockem. A 38th place finish from Crockem led the group with a furthest throw of 48-feet, 9-inches. Meanwhile, McLaughlin ended in 45th place at 46-feet, 8.75-inches.
