FORT WAYNE, Ind. - Grace's track and field teams got to compete at a brand-new indoor facility on Friday for the Indiana Tech Invitational.

The meet officially opened up the Doug Edgar Indoor Track Facility.

Grace posted several impressive results, including a few NAIA national standards.

Kylie Sauder hit an NAIA "B" standard in the 1,000-meter race. Her time of 3:01.31 placed second in the race, and Anna Hulstedt was not far behind in fifth place at 3:08.07.

In the 3,000, Carmen Trier (10:51.48) and Mallory Hiatt (10:56.60) both finished in the top-eight at the meet, and Mackenzie DeLong nabbed an eighth-place showing in the shot put (38-feet-7.75).

Tara Friesen ran a 5:34.48 mile to finish in fifth, and Karsyn Stewart (5:56.31) also finished under six minutes. Stewart also showed well in the 800 with a sixth-place time of 2:45.19, and Anna Buckner was one place behind at 2:52.24.

On the men's side, the Lancers dominated the mile. Bryan Hernandez-Rios won the race, setting the facility record in the process, with an NAIA "B" time of 4:15.22. Logan Rufenacht was a second away from the NAIA mark, placing second at 4:18.58.
