Rorick and Montera shine as Jays kick off indoor track season

LINCOLN, NEBRASKA—Kicking off the indoor track season, the Creighton track and field team competed at the Graduate Classic last weekend. The meet, hosted by the University of Nebraska, included a diverse field of over 40 D1 teams from various conferences.

“With teams like Oregon and Minnesota here, that really sets the tone for the year.” assistant coach Matthew Fayers said.

Despite the presence of powerhouse programs, Creighton rose to the occasion. Impressive distance running defined their performance, with Taylor Rorick and Ryan Montera securing wins in the 5000-meter events. The duo was part of a broader team effort, including eight top-10 finishes and seven personal records.
