Track & Field Hosts Bobcat PReview to Open Indoor Season

Published

on


BOZEMAN, Mont. — The Montana State track & field program opens its 2025-26 season on Wednesday at home, welcoming in-state collegiate teams to Bozeman for the Bobcat PReview at the Kennedy-Stark Athletic Center. The meet marks the Bobcats’ debut in the new facility, kicking off a slate of seven regular-season meets for Montana State, including four at home.
 
The meet is set to begin at 1:30 p.m. with the women’s long jump, which features Sabine Brueck, Hailey Coey, Hailey Ells, and Tamia Ramos. Running events will kick off with the women’s 60-meter hurdles at 3 p.m., with Brueck, Ells, Millie Hubbell, and Olivia Lewis representing the Bobcats in that event. 
 
Live results from the Bobcat PReview will be available here. The meet will not be live streamed.
 

“The track & field team is excited every year to compete after training all summer and fall,” Dale Kennedy Director of Track & Field and Cross Country Lyle Weese said. “With the added element of competing in the Kennedy-Stark Athletic Center for the first time, the anticipation is at an all-time high. This meet will showcase the jumps, vault, throws, and sprints. It will be great to get a checkpoint for where everyone is at after fall training.”
 
The Bobcats will be joined by athletes from seven other Montana Schools as Carroll College, Montana, Montana State-Billings, Montana Tech, Montana Western, Providence, and Rocky Mountain College all make the trek to Bozeman on Thursday.
 
A total of 43 Bobcats – 23 women and 22 men – are scheduled to compete on Thursday. On the women’s side, those athletes include Megan Bell, Emma Brensdal, Sydney Brewster, Sabine Brueck, Hailey Coey, Hailey Ells, Giulia Gandolfi, Peyton Garrison, Libby Hansen, Caroline Hawkes, Maggie Hillis, Millie Hubbell, Annie Kaul, Olivia Lewis, Jenavieve Lynch, Sydney Mattfeldt, Sophia Miller, Tamia Ramos, Brooke Reuter, Tatum Richards, Ave Roberts, Jadyn VanDyken, and Jaeden Wolff
 
The men’s competitors include Ethan Anderson, Noah Barbery, Trystin Chapel, Nash Coley, Billy Cunningham, Matt Furdyk, Tyler Gilman, Jett Grundy, Easton Hatleberg, Talon Holmquist, Jordan Lasher, Chase McGee, Mathias Mees, Peyton Nelson, Destiny Nkeonye, Mario Oblad, Ben Parks, Malikye Simpson, Xavier Simpson, Stryder Todd-Fields, Drake Wilkes, and Preston Wysocki.
 
Montana State will look to build on a historic 2024-25 season that saw the Bobcats send a record number of competitors to both the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor Championship meets. Rob McManus led a group of seven Bobcats competing across four events at the national outdoor meet, placing eighth in the 3,000-meter steeplechase to earn First-Team All-America honors.
Indoors, four Cats made the trip to the NCAA Championships as McManus, Shelby Schweyen, and Harvey Cramb brought Second-Team All-America honors back to Bozeman.
 
The Bobcats also found great success at the conference level in 2025. Six individuals and two relay teams captured Big Sky titles across the indoor and outdoor seasons as the men and women finished runner-up as a team at both conference meets.
 
The 2025-26 indoor season will take the Bobcats around the west as Montana State competes in seven regular-season meets before opening the postseason. MSU’s indoor slate consists of this week’s Bobcat PReview (Dec. 4) and the Bobcat Challenge (Jan. 23-24) in Bozeman before the Bobcats trek to Pocatello, Idaho, for the Stacy Dragila Invite (Jan. 30). Montana State returns home for the Carignan Classic (Feb. 6) before splitting squads between the Don Kirby Elite Invitational and the Husky Classic (Feb. 13-14). Montana State hosts the Big Sky Tuner (Feb. 19) to wrap up the regular season before returning to Pocatello for the Big Sky Indoor Championships (Feb. 26-28). The Bobcats will wrap up indoor competition at the NCAA Indoor Championships in Fayetteville, Ark., on March 13-14.

Published

on


MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – The St. Olaf College men’s track and field team had four first-place finishes at the season-opening M City Classic on Friday and Saturday at the University of Minnesota Fieldhouse.

Senior Lance Nemecek, sophomore Jackson Bullock, and senior Kevin Turlington won individual events on the track for St. Olaf, which also had a first-place performance in the 4×400-meter relay. The Oles put recorded five performances that ranked on their all-time top-10 performers’ list at the first indoor meet of the season.

Nemecek, senior Cullen Moore, first year Paxon Myers, and junior Christian Fells all ran top-12 times in NCAA Division III this season in the 800-meter run to post the four fastest times of the day. Nemecek won the event in 1:54.02, followed closely by Moore in 1:54.16, which rank second and third in the country and third and fourth, respectively, on the Oles’ all-time list. Myers edged Fells at the line by one one-hundredth of a second in 1:55.73, as the pair posted the No. 10 and No. 11 times nationally.

Nemecek, Moore, and Myers were joined by sophomore Austin McInturff on the winning 4×400-meter relay, which compiled a time of 3:21.77 to rank second on St. Olaf’s all-time list. That time is just seven one-hundredths of a second off the program record set in 2016 and ranks fifth in the country.

St. Olaf logged the top-three times of the meet in the one-mile run, led by Bullock’s first-place time of 4:23.01. Senior Eli Doran (4:23.04) and junior Alex Bjork (4:23.37) were within half a second of Bullock, with all three Oles posting top-20 times in NCAA Division III to date.

Senior Kevin Turlington added a win in the 5,000-meter run with the fifth-fastest time in NCAA Division III (14:35.39). Fellow senior Gael Manzur Strandlund was third in 15:19.86 as well.

Sophomore Cristian Escobar Pearson bettered his No. 2 time on St. Olaf’s all-time list in the 60-meter dash in both the prelims (7.07) and finals (7.05) to finish eighth in the event. Junior Jesse Olson recorded the No. 8 score on the Oles’ list in the heptathlon (4,153) by registering four personal-bests in the seven-event, two-day competition to take fourth. Olson’s highest finish came in the high jump, where he placed third after clearing 182 meters (5′ 11 ½”).
