Overall Results

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Oklahoma State track and field sophomore Elliett Kulkin set a new indoor school record in the women's pole vault with her clearance of 3.85m/12-7.5, as OSU completed its trip to the Arkansas Qualifier on Friday.

Kulkin's mark is a lifetime-best height for the Tulsa, Oklahoma native, also putting her at No. 13 in the conference in the event.

"It was a good day for our women vaulters," vault coach Josh Langley said. "Obviously, Elliett coming up with a PR is big, but she put together some consistent attempts and learned how to compete at a higher level today."

As a whole, Dave Smith's squad took home four event titles in the one-day meet.

Sprinter Malik Givens continued his consistent season, running a 6.75 in the 60-meter preliminaries to take first in his heat and qualify for the 60-meter finals. In the finals, Givens posted a solid 6.74 to take second overall.

Schuyler Wood-Hilderbrandt picked up where she left off a week ago, taking first in the women's long jump, leaping 5.83m/19-1.5. Wood-Hilderbrandt is coming off a historic appearance at the Don Kirby Invitational, where she jumped 5.97m/19-7 and took control of No. 2 on the OSU all-time list.

Freshman Allie Stern also showed her prowess in the women's pole vault. She finished sixth overall behind Kulkin and recorded her best mark in an OSU uniform, clearing 3.65m/11-11.75.

Simon Imagbe set a personal-best mark in the men's long jump on Friday. Imagbe took home third overall, leaping 7.29m/23-11, moving him up to No. 6 all-time in the school's top-10.

The men's 4x400 quartet of Kwame Donyinah, Brandon Singleton, Tanner Green and Tyler Jackson recorded the best mark for a men's relay team this season, taking silver in 3:12.68

The Cowgirl DMR team will make an appearance tomorrow at the Alex Wilson Invitational in Notre Dame, Indiana in search of a qualifying mark. The women are set to run at 10:45 a.m. CT.

Tomorrow's event will wrap up the final regular-season weekend of the 2017-18 indoor season, as the Big 12 Indoor Championships are set to kick off next week on Feb. 23-24. The Cowboys finished third as a squad in 2017, and the Cowgirls in fourth overall.
