The Ole women placed 5th at the LaCrosse Invitational this past weekend. Sophomore sensation Megan Daymont (Northfield, Minn.), made a provisional qualifying mark in the 1500 M (4:44.13) with her second place finish. This early season performance is within one second of her best time from last year.

This marks the fifth straight season that Daymont has qualified for national competition. She joins Janet Hengel (Sartell, Minn.), the other Ole national qualifier for this year's indoor nationals. Hengel?s third place finish in the pole vault also met the qualifying mark.

Other top finishers in the LaCrosse meet were Marit Grorud (Fremont, Neb.) in the 800 m (2:25.67), finishing fourth and Annie Sateren's (Minneapolis, Minn.) second place finish in the 5000M (19:00,80).

The next competion for the Oles will be at the Carleton "Meet of the Minds" against teams from Carleton, Grinnell, and Emory on Saturday, February 10 at 11:15 a.m.
