STANFORD, Calif. โ The Husky track and field squad had a small group finishing up action at the Stanford Invitational today at Cobb Track & Angell Field. The Husky jumpers had a strong day, with season-bests in the triple jump from Tim Luebbert and Lauren Heggen, and a victory in the pole vault from Jacob Englar.
ย
Englar, who finished 13th at the NCAA Indoor Championships a few weeks back, got up and over 17-6 ยฝ to finish first in the invite section of the pole vault today. It was a foot higher than his outdoor opener last week in San Diego and puts him to a tie for 9th nationally based on marks entering the weekend.
ย
In the men's triple jump, Luebbert went 49-5 ยฝ just slightly wind-aided at +2.1 and also had a wind-legal jump of 48-4 ยพ.
ย
On the women's side, Heggen had a season-best of 40-7 ยพ, just half an inch off the best of her career.
ย
Ida Eikeng threw the javelin for the first time this season, one of the strongest events for the heptathlete. She won her section with a toss of 156-feet, 5-inches.
ย
Decathletes Jami Schlueter and Ollie Thorner put the shot, as Schlueter went 43-3 and Thorner went 41-6 ยฝ.
ย
On the track, Sam Ellis doubled back from winning the 1,500-meters on Friday and took fourth in the 800-meters today in a time of 1:49.70.

Sophie O'Sullivan ran 2:15.20 and Elle Rutherford ran 2:17.20.
