Jan. 26—MOORHEAD — The Bemidji State women's track and field team finished the 2026 Cobber Alumni Open on a high note on Saturday afternoon with an event win and a total of nine top-five finishes.
The Beavers had a good showing in the field events, with Hannah Baker grabbing her first collegiate event win in the weight throw at a distance of 15.94 meters. Baker grabbed another personal-best and landed her name in the NCAA Division II rankings for the event for the second week, taking 69th. Her longest throw landed at over 1.3 meters farther than the second-place finisher.
Joining Baker in the top five were Elle Bettcher in fourth and Kate Martin in fifth. Trista Bilden led the Beavers in shot put, finishing third with a throw of 12.12 meters, one spot ahead of freshman teammate Kate Martin in fourth with a distance of 11.72 meters.
Allison LaVine marked a personal best of 1.56 meters in the high jump, finishing second. Kathryn Freymiller also landed in the top five for pole vaulters at a height of 2.98 meters, taking third. Hailey Selly competed in the women's long jump, taking 12th with a distance of 4.60 meters.
On the track, Amelia Congrove led BSU in both the 200-meter and 400-meter races, finishing fifth and third, respectively. Josie Aitken and Jayden Wodarz went sixth and seventh in the 200, respectively, split by just 0.02 seconds. In the 60-meter dash preliminaries, Wodarz finished 15th with a time of 8.70, and Kathryn Freymiller competed in the event for her first time, taking 18th at 8.81 seconds.
