Moersdorf Opens the NCAA Championships on Friday

EUGENE, Ore. - Anneke Moersdorf will travel to Hayward Field in Eugene to represent Oregon State University at the NCAA Championships.

Making her first championship appearance, the senior will compete in the Heptathlon on Friday and Saturday. Moersdorf will start Friday with the 100 hurdles at 1:00 p.m. PST and kick off Saturday with long jump at 10:30 a.m. PST.

Moersdorf will walk away from the weekend as a heptathlon All-American, the most recent Beav to earn the title since Kara Hallock in 2017. If she places in the top eight, she will be first-team All-American, second-team if she finishes in the top 16 and honorable mention if she places 17th-24th.

If Moersdorf earns a national title, it would mark OSU's first NCAA championship and its first women's track and field title since Robin Blaine, Kathy Costello, Kristin Trom, and Kathy Weston secured the AIAW National Championship in the two-mile relay in 1979. The last individual national champion for Oregon State was Joni Huntley, who won the high jump and long jump titles in 1975.
