05/05/08 - DAC Championships Results

04/30/08 - Beavers Ready for DAC Track & Field, Day Changed - The Minot State University men's and women's Track & Field teams are in the final stages of preparing for the Dakota Athletic Conference Outdoor Track & Field Championships on Sunday, May 4th in Jamestown, North Dakota. Originally the meet was scheduled for Friday, May 2nd but was changed to Sunday after the DAC coaches and administration consulted the weather forecast. Friday calls for temperatures in the 30's with chance of snow and winds up to 25 miles per hour. Saturday the forecast gets better, but Sunday comes through with the best opportunity for warmer temperatures and mild wind. The meet begins at 11:00 a.m. at Al Cassell Track on the campus of Jamestown College.

The Beavers look poised to make significant improvements with their best showings in the past seven years for both the men and women. On paper, based on the most recent DAC performance list the men are in line to score over 100 points compared to the 17 points they scored last year. Jamestown , Black Hills and Minot are within 10 points of each other looking to fight for second, third and fourth place in the conference. Dickinson is the men's favorite.

The men will be led by fifth year senior Drew Hysjulien who is ranked second in both the triple jump and high jump and sophomore Josh Ming who leads the javelin. Hysjulien is the 2005 and 2006 DAC triple jump champion and looks to three-peat after red shirting last year. Ming is the defending javelin champion.

The women are looking to fight for fourth with Dakota State where four points separate the two – 84 to 80. The women's title looks to go to Black Hills followed by Dickinson and Jamestown .

The women will be led by fifth year senior Jenny Castro who is ranked first in the javelin and fourth in both the shot put and discus. Castro is the 2006 champion in the javelin and second in the discus and looks to repeat those performances after taking the 2007 season off. Sophomore Amanda Warnett will the way on the track with her second place ranking in the 400, on the verge of scoring in the 200, and running legs on both the 4x100 meter and 4x400 meter relays.

“We are going into the conference meet with a lot of confidence, excitement, and determination for our highest finishes on both sides in at least seven years,” said Head Coach Stu Melby. “The men and women have people in scoring positions in pretty much every event we are entered in this year, which is very motivating for us. Everyone is ready to get out and compete and exceed what we have on paper. The paper scores are nice, but now it is time to go out and make them a reality and I think everyone is ready to do that. It will be especially nice to have decent weather to do it in.”

The Sunday meet will get started at 11:00 a.m. with the men's pole vault, long jump and shot put and the women's high jump and discus. It will conclude at 4:45 p.m. with the 4x400 meter relays.
