Lauren Pratt was Incarnate Word’s qualifier for the NCAA Division II Track and Field National Championships and in the long jump finals she moved up the list from her original position.
The long jump finals were conducted on day one of the meet being held in Charlotte, N. C. Pratt had a best leap of 5.64 meters (18-50 feet) and that distance was good for 14th place. A pair of competitors from Lincoln of Missouri finished one and two with both going 6.08 meters.
Pratt had qualified for the championships with her personal career best 5.86 meters (19-02.75 feet) at the recent UIW Last Chance Meet at Benson Stadium. That jump put her 16th on the qualifying list.
