In her sole field event, Ullenbruch competed in the Long Jump and had a season-best 4.99 meters, which is an NCCAA qualifying mark, which is the seventh-fastest mark in the NCCAA this season. Ullenbruch's second event saw her run the 60-meter hurdles where she ran a 9.59, which was also good for an NCCAA qualifying mark and is the third fastest mark in the NCCAA this season. 

Kurth, a sophomore from Ypsilanti, Michigan, had two top-six finishes at the John Flamino Classic on Saturday as she competed in the 800-meter run and the Mile run. The 800-meter saw her place second with a time of 2:45.74, while she placed sixth in the Mile run with a time of 6:08.03.
