COLLEGE STATION, Texas - The Wisconsin women's track and field program completed its weekend of action at two separate sites, putting together multiple top-10 finishes to cap off another pair of meets.

Taylor Kesner provided a spark in the final event of the evening at the 44 Farms team Invitational as the Highland, Illinois native took fifth in the javelin with a heave of 168 feet, 2 inches (51.27m).  That mark ranks third in school history. Kesner also turned in a top-10 showing in the discus with a toss of 174-4. 

Emma Kelley inserted her name at No. 6 all-time in UW's Outdoor Track history in the 400 meters—turning in a time of 54.31 seconds. 

Chloe Lindeman emerged as one of the top performers in the hammer throw with a fourth-place finish at the 44 Farms Team Invitational—notching a mark of 201-10 (62.46m). 

In Platteville, Annika Elliott wrapped up first place in the 1500 meters with a time of 4:39.17. She was followed closely by fellow teammate Maggie McEllistrem, who covered the distance in 4:41.32 to earn a second-place finish. 

Up Next: The Badgers are back on the road, this time returning to California to compete in the annual Bryan Clay Invitational from Wednesday, Apr. 16 to Friday, Apr. 18. More information on the meet info and schedule can be found on our website.
