PULLMAN, Wash. - Whitworth field athletes performed particularly well at the first indoor track and field meet of the season on Friday and Saturday at the Washington State University Open.

Cody Stelzer topped the list by posting an NCAA Division III indoor championship provisional qualifying mark in the high jump. The 2008 NCAA Division III outdoor champion cleared 2.05 meters (6'-8.75") to finish third overall against NCAA Division I competition.

Also for the men, Jeff Kintner finished fifth in the shot put with a distance of 14.71 meters (48'-3.25").

Allyssa Thompson and Corey Dugan led the Pirate women with strong efforts in the long jump. Thompson finished fourth with a mark of 5.23 meters (17'-2"), while Dugan was fifth at 5.21 meters (17'-1.25").

Whitworth will travel to Nampa, Idaho next weekend to compete in the BSU Bronco Invitational at the Nampa Center.
