BROOKINGS, S.D. – Minot State University (MSU) distance runner Bailey Wride led the way for the MSU women on Saturday, while thrower Dallas Reese set the tone for the Beaver men as the South Dakota State Indoor Classic track and field meet wrapped up.

Wride broke her own all-time school record in the women’s 600 meters as she finished 3rd in the event on the day, while Reese was fifth in the men’s shot put with a career-best throw that ranks third in MSU NCAA Division II indoor history and 10th-best in the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC) this winter.

Another strong showing for the Beavers as they continue to fine-tune their performances in preparation for the NSIC Indoor Championships at the end of this month.

Wride, the defending NSIC indoor 600 meters champion, cut more than a second off her all-time school record in the event Saturday as she clocked a time of 1 minute, 35.74 seconds to finish 3rd at the meet hosted by SDSU. Her previous record was 1:36.76 run last season.

She had turned in one of a handful of top performances by the MSU women at the NCAA Division I meet on Saturday, as teammate Kaydee Boyce was 8th in the shot put with a career-best throw of 39 feet, 0.25 inches, and Bailey’s younger sister, Afton Wride, had a career-best performance in the triple jump with a leap of 35-6.5, finishing 10th in the event.

While they led the way for the MSU women, Reese led the way for the men as he was 5th at the SDSU Indoor Classic in the shot put with a throw of 51 feet, 7 inches which demolished his previous career-best mark of 50-0, which ranks third indoors in MSU’s NCAA school history, and 10th this winter in the NSIC.

Joining Reese in turning in a top performance Saturday were Ramon Duran, who was 8th in the 400 meters in 49.08 seconds, a season-best effort that ranks him No. 11 in the NSIC, and Marco Murillo, who was 9th in the 800 meters.

The Beavers compete in one more regular-season meet before the NSIC Indoor Championships, hosted by Minnesota State, Mankato, on February 28 and March 1. That final meet is next Saturday in Bismarck, North Dakota as Minot State competes at the Marauders Tune-Up hosted by the University of Mary.

On Friday, MSU sprinter Summer Krebsbach led the way for the Beavers as she finished 8th in the women’s 200-meter invitational event at the South Dakota State Indoor Classic. Krebsbach clocked a time of 25.39 seconds in the event.

While she led the way for the Beavers, the MSU women also got top performances from Camryn Adams in the open women’s 200 meters, as she was 5th in 25.69 seconds, and from Macey Moore in the women’s 300 meters as she was 9th in 46.19 seconds.

Peyton Tuhy led the way for the MSU men as he was 19th in the men’s 800 meters in 1 minute, 56.39 seconds, while Nasir Dilworth led the Beaver men’s sprinters, finishing 15th in the 200 in 22.57.
