RESULTS | Day 1 Recap

WINSTON-SALEM, NC – Kelsie Sealock and the 4x400m relay team of Hannah Sankey, Sarah Stellmach, Mikayla Turek, and Sealock earned All-American honors at the NCAA Championships on Saturday. Sealock took 3^rd place in the 60m hurdles as she tied her lifetime best of 8.62 seconds. The race was incredibly tight as the winner was just 0.01 ahead of Sealock. That was the 2^nd All-American award of her career.

The 4x400m relay team placed 8^th with a time of 3:54.66. Hannah Sankey led off like a veteran of the national championships in 58.35. Sarah Stellmach had a terrific split in 57.89 as the second leg – the best of her career. Junior Mikayla Turek split 58.35 and handed off to Sealock in a dead heat with UW-LaCrosse. Sealock ran a courageous leg, finishing with a strained muscle in 60.07.

"The girls really showed up and performed extremely well in the biggest meet of the year," said Head Coach Andrew Rock. "Kelsie did everything she could and came within .01 of winning the national title in the 60H. That's an incredible way to end her magical indoor season in her main individual event.  The 4x400 ran an absolutely bold and gusty final and have so much to be proud of.  They wanted so badly to be All-Americans and they did just that.  It's incredible tough to do what they did and we are all so proud of them."
