Wildcats take five events at Linfield Open

McMINNVILLE, Ore. - Kenzie Feinglas was responsible for two of the Wildcats' five individual victories at their own Linfield Open Saturday at Maxwell Field.
 
The senior didn't compete in one of her specialty events, the 100-meter dash, but she still went home with top times in the 200 and 400.
 
Bradley Kiltow turned in a winning performance in the 3,000-meter steeplechase while Jacob Slifka and Matt Metcalf took home winning marks in the discus and javelin, respectively, to lead the Linfield men in the Wildcats' final home meet of the season.
 
The 'Cats celebrated the careers of 19 graduating student-athletes in a Senior Day ceremony that took place during the meet.
 
MEN
Kiltow excelled in his lone event of the afternoon, winning the steeplechase with a comfortable lead of more than 15 seconds. He crossed the finish line in 10:01.85.
 
A two-time Northwest Conference champion in the men's discus, Slifka had a winning distance of 159 feet, 9 inches.
 
Metcalf was the victor in the javelin with a heave of 196 feet, 10 inches. Hayden Magill placed fifth in the same event at 160-04.
 
Dylan Jackson (22.20) and Evan Fisette (22.52) finished second and third in the 200-meter dash, respectively. Jackson was also fifth in the 100 dash at 11.05 seconds.
 
Alex Oathout edged Lewis-Clark State's Brycen Kempton by two-hundredths of a second in the 1,500-meters to sneak into third place with a time of 4:05.91.
 
Oathout ran the fourth leg of the 4x800 relay team, which saw the 'Cats cross the finish line behind Lewis-Clark State at 8:03.13. The foursome included Calvin Cahill, Conner Dooley and Evan Kern.
 
Andrew Troeh tied for third in the high jump with Umpqua Community College's Isaac Stere with a leap of 6 feet, 2 inches.
 
WOMEN
The Co-Outstanding Performer of the Meet at the NWC Championships, Feinglas cruised to a win in the 400-meter dash in 57.75 seconds. She returned later in the meet to clock a winning time of 25.61 seconds the 200.
 
Logan Roberts continued her successful season in the high jump, clearing 5 feet, 2.25 inches to place second. Siera Crawford was sixth in the high jump at 5-00.25 and seventh in the pole vault at 10-10.00.
 
Rachelle Silis just missed a top-five finish in the 400-meters, running a 1:00.93 to place sixth. Makayla Erickson was sixth in the 800 at 2:32.50.
