4 out of the 16 people to make the Heptathlon field from the MVC, pretty impressive I'd say!

Mulder ran a great race. He came in with the 6th best time and 3 of the 5 ahead of him failed to qualify for the finals. He ended up with the 2nd best prelim time. I hope he can put a good run together tomorrow.

The heptathlon competitors didn't have quite as good of a day as they would have liked. Somewhat dissapointing performances in the high jump have UNI's Mat Clark and Raven Cepeda at 8th and 10th respectively. While WSU's Krzysztof Slupkowsk and Chris Dickman are 14th and 15th. two of the three events tomorrow are Cepeda's best so he should have a pretty big jump in the standings.

Holy Crap, Mulder kicks down EVERYONE to win the NCAA 800 in 1:49+

Wow!

Cepeda was 7th in the Heptathlon

Congrats to Tyler Mulder for just winning the 800!:panthers:

Great job by the Junior. Was able to turn it on in the final 100 meters.


Also UNI Sophmore Ehi Oamen finished 3rd in the high jump.

the UNI men finish in 9th place. Congrats to the Panthers on another top ten national finish.:panthers:

top ten-

1) Arizona State 44
2) Florida State 41
3) Texas 34
4) LSU 33
5) Tennessee 26
6) Arkansas 24
7) Stanford 23
8) Florida 19
9) Northern Iowa 18
10) Washington 17
10) Texas A&M 17

i'm sure Cepeda would have liked to do better, considering he got 3rd last year and came in with the top Heptathlon score this year. Just more motivation to work harder for the decathlon.

WSU's multi-eventers are young and will have their chances before there careers are over.

On to the outdoor season.

right where they were ranked all year long for the most part. They coulda been top 5 or 6 with more points from Raven.
