MINNEAPOLIS -- The Golden Gopher track and field program will be well-represented at the NCAA West Preliminary as the University of Minnesota has qualified 31 entries for the NCAA first round competition, which is scheduled for May 22-25, hosted by the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville.
About the NCAA West Prelim
The four-day competition takes place at John McDonnell Field on the campus of the University of Arkansas. Qualifying individuals and relays advance to the 2024 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Eugene, Ore., held on June 5-7 at Hayward Field. Athletes who rank among the top 48 in their respective event earn a berth into the NCAA West Preliminary Rounds. In addition, the best 24 relay times advance to the NCAA preliminaries. Athletes with the top 12 times/marks and the best 12 relay teams at both the East and West Preliminary Rounds sites will qualify for the NCAA Championships. The action will be live streamed via ESPN on ESPN+ while live results can be followed on FlashResults.com.
Gophers at the NCAA West Prelim
The women's team enters the meet with five participants ranked among the top 10 in six different events, including Odell Frye (No. 7 - 100m), Zoie Dundon (No. 5 - 3000m steeplechase), Diarra Sow (No. 8 - triple jump), Anthonett Nabwe (No. 9 - shot put, No. 10 - hammer throw), and Shelby Frank (No. 3 - discus throw, No. 4 - hammer throw). Minnesota's men head south with four athletes ranked in the top 10 of regional entrants in five events featuring Devin Augustine (No. 2 - 100m, No. 3 - 200m), Jak Urlacher (No. 6 - pole vault), Charles Godfred (No. 3 - long jump), and Angelos Mantzouranis (No. 3 - hammer throw).
Augustine, Frye and Godah all will be busy throughout the weekend, potentially competing in three events each with the trio all running as members of Minnesota's 4x100m relay teams. Additionally, Minnesota's 4x400m relay team on the women's side qualified. Out of Minnesota's qualifiers, eight women qualified for their first NCAA West Regional while six men earned bids for the first time in their careers.
Last Time Out
It was a banner day for the University of Minnesota on May 12 as the women's team won the 2024 Big Ten Conference Outdoor Track and Field Championship after recording 80 team points during the day and totaled 131. On the men's side, the Golden Gophers added two event titles and finished the meet in seventh place overall.
It's the fourth time in program history the Maroon and Gold have claimed the women's team title, including three of the previous eight meets, and first since 2018. The 4x400m relay team of Jayla Campbell, Janielle Josephs, Brooke Jaworski, and Abigail Schaaffe clinched the championship with a come-from-behind event win by .01 seconds.
