MONMOUTH, Ill. —
Distance runner Mary Kate Beyer (East Peoria, Ill./East
Peoria) had a busy weekend, setting a school record, provisionally
qualifying for the NCAA Outdoor Championships and earning the latest
Midwest Conference Performer of the Week honor in women’s track.
Beyer has been re-writing the Monmouth College
record book this season and last week was no exception. Competing at
last weekend’s Indiana Pacesetter Invitational which included
Division I schools, the distance specialist placed second in the
steeplechase. Her time of 11:01.94 broke her own school record and
improved her prior provisional qualifying time for the event. Her
performance moved her to the top of the Midwest Conference standings
and into the top 20 nationally.
