The field at the Jim Click invitational is nothing to sneeze at. Indeed, the top five finishers in the women’s heptathlon posted scores that would leave them all within the top eight nationally at day’s end.
The top of that list: Kansas State senior Lauren Taubert, who set a personal best with 5,831 points to claim the victory on Friday. Taubert’s performance places her atop the NCAA competition list, and was 38 points better than her performance in the 2019 NCAA Championships.
Ariel Okorie, with 5,474 points, was the aforementioned fifth-place finisher and now sits eighth in Division I on the season.
