Roehrig, a freshman who had provisionally qualified for the NCAA's in both the pentathlon and high jump, participated only in the high jump at ISU. Roehrig was tied for the ninth best high jump clearance in the country at 5-10 1/2 heading into the weekend. Although she tied for second at Iowa State, Roehrig did not better her qualifying mark, clearing 5-7 1/4 on Saturday.
Smith cleared 13-1 1/2 in the pole vault last weekend, setting a new school record and qualifying for the NCAA Indoor Championships. She was joined in the pole vault competition by fellow freshman, Massey and Nord. Smith placed second with a clearance of 12-6, while Massey and Nord both cleared 11-6 1/4 and finished sixth and eighth respectively.
The NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships open at the Randal Tyson Indoor Track facility on the campus of the University of Arkansas on Friday, March 11 at 9:00 a.m.
