Elizabeth Iversen Vaults Into Contention For Shot Put National Championship Bid

Allendale, Mich. – Bowling Green State University senior Elizabeth Iversen posted a massive personal best in the shot put and vaulted herself into contention for one of 16 bids to the NCAA Indoor Track & Field National Championships. Iversen's throw of 54-feet-11.25 (16.74m) places her in the top 15 in the country and is almost four feet further than she had ever thrown before.

Iversen's effort was the highlight of a day that saw the Falcons earn nine personal bests as the team continued to position itself for a strong contingent at the MAC Indoor Track & Field Championships in two weeks.
