Meet Results
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Senior
Grace Yarkosky (South Lyon, Mich. / South Lyon) broke the indoor program record she set just a day earlier in the 400-meter dash, finishing in 54.41 seconds to place second at the NCAA Division III Indoor Track and Field Championships on Saturday at the Birmingham CrossPlex.
Yarkosky's runner-up finish earned her First-Team All-America honors, the first of her career, and added eight points to Plattsburgh's team total. She becomes the program's first All-American since Elisabeth Plympton achieved the honor in 2018.
Along with setting a new indoor program record, Yarkosky's performance also established a new conference record, ranking among the fastest times in Division III history.
The Plattsburgh State women's track and field team will open its outdoor season on Saturday, March 28, at the UMass Flagship First Meet.
