Two Indiana women’s track and field athletes — sophomore Jaden Ulrich and redshirt senior Maddy Pollard — competed in the Toyota USATF Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Oregon, over the weekend.
Both athletes took part in the shot put competition, where Ulrich placed 14th and Pollard placed 16th. Ulrich’s best throw reached 16.87 meters and Pollard’s 16.69 meters.
Both athletes finished in the top-eight at the Big Ten discus championships and ended their seasons in the same event at the NCAA Championships.
Ulrich also took part in the discus competition but did not record any qualifying throws. She set the Indiana school record in discus with a throw of 59.01 meters en route to winning the Big Ten Championship during the spring 2022 season.
Ulrich is currently ranked 74th in shot put and 105th in discus, and Pollard is ranked 66th in shot put and 240th in discus, according to the USATF database.
