Topeka, KS – The No. 10 nationally ranked Indian Hills Women's Track & Field squad took on the Ichabod Invitational at Washburn University over the weekend, bringing home a number of top-five school performances.

The 200-meter squad put together a strong showing with three personal best performances for the Warriors led by Shanice Cox's (Minneapolis, MN/Minneapolis South) fifth-place finish with a time of 24.46. Cox's time, ranked third in school history, was good enough for the sophomore's fifth top-five finish in the event this year.

Joining Cox in 200m dash was Nyla Norman (Evansdale, IA/Waterloo East) who placed seventh overall with a personal best mark of 24.65, fourth-best in school history and Kenyatta Grate (British, Virgin Islands/Elmore Stout) who placed eighth overall with a time of 24.66, the fifth-fastest mark in school history.

The middle distance duo of Amaree Hamilton (Lansing, IL/Hillcrest) and Selket Reid-El (Jacksonville, FL/Raines) produced a pair of strong performances in two separate events. Hamilton produced a personal best time of 1:28.76 in the 600-yard run to place ninth overall for the Warriors. Hamilton's time was good enough for third all-time in school history. Reid-el followed behind Hamilton in the 600y with a time of 1:29.97 for a 13^th place finish.

In the 800-meter run, Hamilton ran another personal best mark with a time of 2:20.14 to place 16^th for the Warriors which now ranks third-best in school history. Reid-el followed suit with a strong showing of her own to place 19^th overall out of 51 participants.

Along with Norman's effort in the 200m dash, the freshman cruised to the program's top time in the 400-meter dash this year with a mark of 57.37 to place fifth overall. Norman cemented her name in the Indian Hills record books with the second-fastest time in school history.

Fellow freshman Laurie Louis (Miami, FL/North Miami) clocked in at 58.23 in the 400m to produce the fifth-fastest mark in school history for the Warriors.

Freshman Destiny Mithcell (Milwaukee, WI/Milwaukee Riverside) tied for third overall in the women's high jump with a mark of 1.55 meters, clearing three of her first four attempts on the day.

The Ichabod Invite was the final tune-up for the Warriors prior to postseason action. Indian Hills is set for the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Region 11 Indoor Championship Feb. 16-17 at the Lambert Recreation Center in Storm Lake, IA.
