The Rainbow Wahine enter the weekend riding significant momentum after an impressive outing at the Bryan Clay Invitational, where the team posted multiple program top-10 marks and secured several event wins.
Senior
Lilian Turban currently holds the Big West lead in the high jump with a mark of 1.80m (5-10.75) while also sitting in fourth in the javelin 48.12m (157-10).
Tara Wyllie comes into the week second in the triple jump with a mark of 12.78m (41-11.25).
Leading the charge in the sprints and hurdles is junior
Robyn Larkan. She is coming off a stellar performance where she finished third in the 100m hurdles with a wind-aided time of 13.62 seconds. While the +2.1 wind gauge prevented the mark from counting as a school record, it was .23 seconds faster than her current official program best. Larkan also added her name into the Hawai'i record books in the 200m, running a 24.35 to take the No. 9 spot in school history.
In the field events, the Rainbow Wahine pole vaulters and throwers are aiming to capitalize on strong recent outings. Freshman
Ava Enriquez moved into the No. 5 spot on the program's all-time pole vault list last week after clearing 3.95m (12-11.5). Fellow freshman
Betsy Wade also captured a win in the open section of the vault with a personal-best 3.80m (12-5.5).
In the throws,
Rose Forshaw and
Valo Sopoaga will look to repeat their success from the Bryan Clay Invitational, where Forshaw won the open division of the shot put with a toss of 13.96m (45-9.75) and Sopoaga took third at 13.80m (45-3.5).
