Â
Allen ended with 4,568 points, earning a Big Sky qualifying mark in the multi-event. Pettit finished with 4,144 points and Harris rounded out the trio with 4,115 points.

Allen's final score ranks as the fifth best in the league standings.
Â
The senior sat in first place after day one, winning three of the four events and followed it up with a win in the long jump and a third place finish in the 800m run. Unfortunately an 11th place finish in the javelin throw hurt her in the final standings.

Â
The sixth event of the two-day meet was the javelin throw. Pettit was the top performer for the Bears sticking a throw of 23.28 meters (76-04), good for fifth. Harris and Allen earned 10th and 11th place finishes with tosses of 19.80m (64-11) and 17.18m (56-04).
