- Javelin 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) 

Myran, starting in the first lane, went out fast so he would not get boxed in by the 12-man field. Myran led the race for the first two laps as the pack settled into a leisurely pace. At the 800-meter mark, another runner took his turn leading the pack as Myran relinquished his lead in order to save his strength for the finishing stretch.(More)
