TRACK & FIELD
Warrior Track and Field begins postseason competition with the Cascade Conference Multi Championships on Thursday. Five LC State student-athletes will represent the Warriors in the combined events.
Christian Bothwell leads the group of three men into the weekend after earning All-Cascade Conference honors last season. The senior finished third at the meet in 2022 and is currently the highest ranked decathlete in the CCC on the national level. Bothwell earned a career-high 6,322 points at the Bucs Scoring Invite which is the seventh-best mark in the NAIA this season. Justin Krabbenhoft is 11th in the NAIA and second in the CCC after scoring 5,701 points in Spokane, and Caleb Moore finished seventh at the CCC Multis last season with 5,322 points.
On the women’s side, Sara Hathaway ranks seventh in the Cascade in the heptathlon after scoring 3,986 points at the Bucs Scoring Multi. She placed 11th at last season’s championship with 3,965 points, and Jennah Carpenter finished eighth with 4,144 points. Though she has missed most of the outdoor season due to injury, Carpenter was an All-American in the indoor pentathlon where she placed eighth before capturing the national title in the high jump. Both will be in action this weekend.
