Pocatello, ID -  Westminster University's men's and women's track & field teams delivered a composed and competitive performance at the Snake River Open in Pocatello, Idaho, continuing their early-season development against strong regional competition. The meet marked the third competition of the indoor season for the Griffins and served as another important measuring point as the team continues to build consistency across events.

The men's squad was anchored by junior Sebastian Moon, who recorded Westminster's top track performance of the weekend with a 51.47 in the 400 meters, earning an eighth-place finish overall. Moon's effort highlighted continued progress in the quarter-mile. In the field events, freshman Jack Mulliner remained a key contributor, placing seventh in the long jump with a mark of 6.37 meters (20'10.75"), while also competing in the triple jump. On the track, Dario Garcia Sanchez led the Griffins in the 200 meters, finishing 12th overall with a time of 22.89, as Westminster showed balance across sprint, middle-distance, and field events.

On the women's side, freshman Kanoe Haneberg produced Westminster's highest individual placement of the meet, earning a third-place finish in the high jump after clearing 1.63 meters (5'4.25"). Sophomore Mia McKay added a strong all-around performance, placing fifth in the pentathlon with 2,940 points, while also contributing across multiple individual events. In the distance races, Eileen O'Connor led the Griffins in the mile, posting a time of 5:25.02 as Westminster continued to establish depth in the longer events.

With three meets completed to open the season, Westminster will now take a short break from competition to focus on training and recovery. The Griffins are scheduled to return to action on January 30, traveling to Utah State for their next indoor meet.
