BOZEMAN, Mont. — As the calendar turns to May, Montana State track and field will turn the corner towards the home straightaway of their season this weekend at the Bengal Invitational in Pocatello, Idaho. 

Fresh off a record-breaking April, the Bobcats head to the Gem State on Friday for a two-day meet hosted at Davis Field. 

The penultimate meet of the regular season pits the Cats against host Idaho State and Montana, among other schools, in what will be the final tune-up for many competing athletes before the 2025 Big Sky Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Sacramento begin May 14-17. 

“It has been a really good meet for us over the last three years that we’ve gone there,” head coach Lyle Weese said. “There are trials and finals in the sprint events, which is a good preview for the conference meet. There tend to be a good number of teams that are good in the jumps, vaults, and throwing events, so it’s a bit of a conference preview for us in many ways between the level of competition and the trials and finals in the sprints. It’s kind of a run-through for the sprints, hurdles, jumps, vault, and throwing events.” 

Action begins with the women’s hammer on Friday at 1 p.m., with track events getting underway at 3 p.m. in the women’s 100 meter hurdle prelims. 

A full meet schedule can be viewed here. 

Only the main distance squad will hang back in Bozeman to train, with all other event groups a full-go on Friday in Pocatello under sunny skies and temperatures in the upper 60s. 

In their last three weekends of competition, Montana State has set nine new school records, including seven on the women’s side (shot put, discus, 200 meters, 3,000 meter steeplechase, 5,000 meters, 4×100 meter relay, 4×400 meter relay) and two on the men’s side (4×100 meter relay, 4×400 meter relay). 

“It’s been impressive that the success has been across all of the event groups,” Weese said. “It seems like all of the event groups for both men and women are putting up some great marks and great performances. For me, the most exciting thing is that we’re going to be heading into conference championships and then into NCAA regionals and beyond with individuals that are competitive across the entire array of events.” 

Last week, the Cats’ distance squad turned in a handful program all-time top ten marks at the Payton Jordan Invitational, hosted by Stanford in Palo Alto, California, while the rest of the team competed at the Montana Open in Missoula. 

Kyla Christopher-Moody was named Big Sky Women’s Track Athlete of the Week for the second time this season after placing third in the 5,000 meters in Palo Alto, while Sydney Brewster was named Big Sky Women’s Field Athlete of the Week for the second straight week after winning both the shot put and discus in Missoula. 

Following the weekend’s results, the Montana State women held steady at No. 3 in the USTFCCCA Week Five Mountain Region Rankings released on Monday, while the men stayed put at No. 7. 

The Bobcat men still own the top-ranked 3,000 meter steeplechase group in the country according to the USTFCCCA Event Squad rankings while ranking No. 17 in the 1,500 meters, No. 19 in the hammer throw, No. 21 in the 5,000 meters, and No. 38 in the shot put. 

The Bobcat women rank No. 25 in the pole vault, No. 26 in the hammer, No. 36 in the 5,000 meters, and No. 40 in the 200 meters. 

Following the Bengal Invitational this weekend in Pocatello, the Bobcats wrap up the regular season with the Tom Gage Invite the following Friday, May 9, in Bozeman at the Bobcat Track & Field Complex. Admission is free for the lone outdoor home meet of the season.

What to watch for in WPIAL sports on May 24, 2025: Boys volleyball titles up for grabs

Gold will be handed out to the winners of the 2025 WPIAL boys volleyball championship matches Saturday afternoon at Peters Township.

One of them could be district title No. 23 for No. 1 North Allegheny (14-1) as the Tigers battle section rival No. 2 Seneca Valley (14-3) in the Class 3A championship match at 1 p.m.

The Tigers have accumulated the most district boys volleyball crowns, eight more than the No. 2 team on the list, old Homestead HS.

Most of the championships have comes in this century, with 16 titles since 2000.

NA has three-peated twice and on two other occasions won five in a row between 2017-2022 (no season in 2020) and captured eight straight crowns between 2007-2014.

In fact, the two-year dry spell since 2022 ties for the longest drought since 2003 after the Tigers failed to win gold in the 2015 and 2016 seasons.

Meanwhile, the Raiders are in search of their first WPIAL boys volleyball championship.

Thus far this postseason, both teams had a first-round bye.

North Allegheny has swept past Mt. Lebanon in the quarterfinals and Pine-Richland in the semifinals by scores of 3-0.

Seneca Valley defeated Canon-McMillan in the quarters, 3-0, and then edged Penn-Trafford in the semis, 3-2.

This is the rubber match of the three meetings between the teams this season.

North Allegheny won the most recent on May 8, 3-1.

In the first match, Seneca Valley handed NA its only loss on April 7, 3-2.

Joining the double class club?

Top-seeded Shaler (15-1) is looking for a third straight district title and to join an exclusive club when it goes up against No. 2 Ambridge (15-1) in the WPIAL Class 2A boys volleyball finals at 3 p.m.

The Titans captured Class 3A gold in 2023 and 2024; however, realignment this offseason dropped them to Class 2A.

From 1936-2007, there was only one classification in boys volleyball in the state.

Shaler is now trying to become the fourth school to win gold in both classes, joining Montour, Ambridge and Deer Lakes.

It won’t be easy as the Titans go up against a Bridgers program that has the fourth-most district boys volleyball titles with 10.

Ambridge is looking for its first championship this decade with its last title coming in 2019.

Shaler and Ambridge each enjoyed opening-round byes in the 2025 postseason.

The Titans have swept past Hopewell and South Fayette in the quarters and semis by scores of 3-0.

The Bridgers ousted Thomas Jefferson in the quarterfinals, 3-1, and then got past Mars in the semifinals, 3-2.

The only loss of the season for Shaler came in a nonsection match against North Allegheny.

The lone defeat for Ambridge came in a Section 4-2A match against South Fayette.

Centennial track

The major birthday celebration for the PIAA track and field championship concludes Saturday.

The two-day event continues at its longtime home of Shippensburg University.

The first state track and field event took place in 1925.
