CORVALLIS, Ore. – The first split-squad weekend of the year is upon Oregon State with some Beavs heading to the UW Invite in Seattle while others travel to Fayetteville for the Razorback Invite.

The UW Invite is streamed on Runnerspace ($) with live results available here. Those who want to watch the Beavers in Fayetteville can tune in to the livestream on SEC Network+ or follow the live results here.

Both competitions are two-day meets with events on Friday at Saturday. A full Oregon State competition schedule is located below.

LAST TIME OUT
Lizzie Hatton and Emma Nelson secured the first wins of 2023 in the 200 meters and high jump to highlight a strong day for the Beavs at the UW Preview. In addition to Nelson and Hatton's victories, Oregon State athletes posted six PRs in their return to the track. Six Beavers made the podium with top-three results.

Hatton and Jada Hurley each posted PRs in the 60-meter dash finals, crossing in 7.61 and 7.64 seconds respectively to place second and third. Adael Scatena and Anneke Moersdorf matched the third and fourth place finishes with PRs of their own in the hurdles, finishing in 8.74 and 8.77 seconds.

Things picked up in the field events throughout the day. Keely McLaughlin had a pair of sixth place results in the weight throw (15.51m/50-10.75) and shot put (14.52m/47-07.75). Taylor Crockem added a personal best in the shot put with a 14.46m/47-5.25 put. Nelson continued OSU's momentum in the field by winning the high jump, her first win of the year after placing second at the Spokane Indoor in December. She was just three-quarters of an inch from a PR with a 5-9.25 leap that earned the win.

Hatton returned to the track at the end of the day to lock up her first collegiate victory. The freshman raced to a 25.32 in the 200 meters, narrowly outpacing Washington's Danielle Hunter and her teammate Hurley.

Oregon State closed the day with a strong 4x400m relay. The 'A' group of Scatena, Paige Sefried, Weidinger and Mari Friedman placed third with the no. 9 time in OSU history (3:53.91).

2022 INDOOR SEASON REVIEW
The Beavs are coming off a productive indoor season that saw them score at the NCAA Championships for the first time while head coach Louie Quintana was named West Region Coach of the Year by the USTFCCCA.

The Distance Medley Relay team of Mitchell, Adael Scatena, Mari Friedman, and Fetherstonhaugh raced to a fourth-place finish and first-team All-America honors at the NCAA Indoor Championships. The quartet stopped the clock at 10:58.76. Fetherstonhaugh and Mitchell also competed in the 3000 meters on finishing 9th (9:05.13) and 12th (9:08.58), respectively, to earn second-team All-America honors.

At the Pac-12 Invitational, Mitchell broke nine minutes in the 3000 meters, garnering a first-place finish with an indoor personal-best and Oregon State school record of 8:58.39. Mitchell, Scatena, Friedman, and Fetherstonhaugh shattered the previous Oregon State DMR record of 11:24.59 by stopping the clock at 10:57.35 to place second in the race.

UP NEXT
Another split-squad weekend awaits the Beavs with athletes headed both back to Seattle for the UW Husky Classic as well as to Albuquerque, N. M. for the Don Kirby Classic.
