Final Results
For the second consecutive
day Cobber senior Nicole Plante
(Sr., Fort Benton, Mont.) earned All-American honors at the NCAA Division
III Outdoor Track and Field National Meet held at Wartburg College in Waverly,
Iowa. Plante, who finished seventh in the heptathlon on Friday, came from
behind to capture eighth place in the javelin.
The top eight places in each
individual event earn All-American honors.
Plante qualified for the
finals in the event by posting a distance of 129-6.0 in the second preliminary
heat. She then needed to better that mark in the finals to earn the All-American
award. In the finals, Plante committed a foul on her first attempt and
then threw well short of the distance on her second try. Needing to post
a distance of at least 130-8.0 on her final throw of the competition, Plante
came through in the clutch by tossing the javelin 131-6.0. In the end,
that distance was good enough for eighth place and her second All-American
award of the meet.(More)

is 327 behind Dingels, who uncorked two MIAC heptathlon record-breaking
