Jadin's 7th place a bit of a disappointment since she won the NCAA indoor championship, but her teammate got a PB finishing 12th. Hopefully those 2 sophomores can keep improving together as they were the only two teammates who qualified and competed int the championship in the Hept.

In addition to Olivia's PB, soph high jumper Madison Schmidts also had a PB despite not getting points for ND. Also Canadian Freshman Sonia Chisolm fell out of the top 8 as a couple racers passed her in the 5k at the end. She can take solace in knowing Olivia was just out of placing last year (9th overall) and with focus and training she won it all this year. Its great Olivia plans to run another year at ND with extra Covid year of eligibility.
