(Findlay, OH) - The Women's Track and Field Team opened their 2011-12 season Saturday at the Oiler Open in Findlay, Ohio.

The team was led by freshmen, Michelle LaGrand who turned in an outstanding performance. Michele broke school records in both the 60 meter and 200 meter dashes. She ran an 8.25 in the 60 meter and a 28.0 in the 200 meter. "I was pretty confident that those school records were going to fall today, because I know what a talented runner Michelle is," said Head Coach Steve Montgomery. "I knew she just had to go out there and run what she is capable of running. Michelle is a very hard worker, and I am sure those records will fall again in the future," he added.

A school record was also broken in the shot put by freshmen, Kaitlyn McNight, who threw a 33'6" shot put. "Kaitlyn is a very strong thrower. Breaking the school record in the first meet of the season is awesome" said Coach Montgomery. "I see good things in her future," he added.

Running in the 300 meter was freshmen, Joy Orr, establishing a first ever school record in that event, running a 50.52. "It was a solid start to the season for Joy," Coach Montgomery said.

Running in the middle distance events were sophomore Molly Rathje, freshmen Leigh McRobbie and senior Maggie Harris.  McRobbie and Harris both newcomers to track, both ran PR's (personal records) in the 800 meter, running 2:57.1 and 2:57.9 respectively.

"Overall I would say that we had a good start to our indoor track season," Montgomery said, "I'm very pleased."
