POCATELLO, Idaho – On Day 2 of the Snake River Open sophomore
Madison Cicierski and junior
Taylor Clark placed first and second in the weight throw, respectively.
Cicierski's throw of 55'2" is good for the sixth best throw on ISU's all-time indoor records. Clark's toss of 53'4" was enough to get her on the all-time list at ninth. These marks are also the top in the Big Sky at this point in the season.
"Madi is pretty young and to have her be where she's at early on is great," Head Coach
Hillary Merkley said. "We recruited her as a javelin thrower actually so she's doing a great job in an area we didn't even recruit her for. She just works hard and pushes herself."
Sophomore Skyla Liava'a-Fiefia also had a personal best in the weight throw of 47'3.5". Liava'a-Fiefia also took second in the shot put with a personal best throw of 40'5.75". Freshman
Alyssa Gorrell also had a personal best throw of 40'4.5", good enough for a third place finish in the shot put.
In the long jump junior
Hannah Bartz took second with a jump of 18'11.75". Freshman Brianna Vanvleet jumped 17'4.25 to finish sixth and sophomore Sarah Pinney set a personal best mark with 15'6".
