Braedon Shaner -- Pole Vault -- Freshman -- Sycamore, Ill. / Sycamore

In Shaner's first collegiate competition in the pole vault, he cleared the 16-foot bar for the first time. His of 4.90 meters (16' .75") moves him to seventh on the UW-Platteville All-Time List. That mark ranks him tied for sixth on the WIAC List and is tied for 10th on the NCAA DIII Indoor Rankings.



Izzy Peterson -- Sprints -- Senior -- Lexington, Ky. / Roosevelt

Peterson won the 60 meters and 200 meters at the WIAC Triangular hosted by UW-Stevens Point on Saturday, breaking a pair of school records in the process. In the 60-meter trails, Peterson started her day running a 7.60, followed by a 7.57 time in the finals. That time was a .10 second personal best and currently ranks second in the NCAA Division III Indoor National List. She then closed her day by running a .49 second personal best in the 200 meters of 24.33. That time is the 10th-best in DIII history, and currently ranks first in national list.
