• Mehringer cited by MVC — Indiana State sophomore Rachel Mehringer was named the MVC Women’s Track Athlete of the Week on Tuesday afternoon after a dominant performance at the University of Mississippi Joe Walker Invitational.
Mehringer clocked a wind-legal 100-meter hurdles time of 13.48 seconds, cruising to a first-place finish in the event at Ole Miss. Her time was more than three-tenths of a second faster than anyone in the field, and also marked her seventh wind-legal 100 hurdles time under 13.5 since the start of last season. In addition, she also ran the first leg of Indiana State’s 4-by-100-meter relay which placed third with a time of 45.69, just one-tenth of a second off the program top-10 charts.
Mehringer owns the fastest 100 hurdles time in the MVC this season. Her time also ranks second in the Great Lakes Region, 21st in NCAA East Qualifying and 47th nationally. Indiana State’s 4x100m relay team sits third in the MVC, fifth in the Great Lakes Region and 42nd in NCAA East Qualifying.
