STANFORD, Calif. – The Oregon State track & field team will compete at the Pacific-12 Conference championships this Saturday and Sunday at Cobb Track and Angell Field hosted by Stanford University.

The Beavers are in seventh place with 2 points entering the weekend; one point behind Oregon (3) and two points behind Colorado (4). Junior Saskia McNairy took seventh at the Pac-12 Multi-Event Championships last weekend.

The top eight finishers from each will score team points. The Beavers have five student-athletes in the top 8 in their respective events in the Pac-12 season performance list:

Redshirt junior Nicole Goecke is seeded sixth in the 800 meters (2:06.59). She holds the second-best time in the event in Oregon State history and has twice this season eclipsed 2:09 in the event.
Redshirt senior Kristiane Width is seeded fifth in the 3,000-meter steeplechase. She set her season-best time of 10:25.67 at the Bryan Clay Invitational earlier this season; it was her only attempt at the event.
Junior Juliana Mount is also seeded in the steeplechase just two spots behind Width at seventh. Mount ran a time of 10:27.80 at the OSU High Performance Meet. She is the current school record holder in the steeple (10:22.97).
Another school record holder is seeded inside the top eight with senior Destiny Dawson in the javelin. Dawson sits seeded fourth in the event with her best throw of 168-9 coming at the Beach Invitational.
Junior Delaney Hall finalizes the Beavers seeded inside the top 8. Hall sits eighth in the javelin with her best throw of 156-2, also coming at the Beach Invitational.

Redshirt freshman Jessica Molina who holds the school record in the hammer throw will be competing in the event. Molina holds the school record with a throw of 183-11. She took the record away from sophomore Lindsay McShane who will also be throwing in the hammer throw.

Last year the Beavers finished in 11^th place at the 2017 championships with 21.5 points. This was the second-most points for OSU since the programs reinstatement in 2005.
