EUGENE, Ore. – Tulsa sophomore Sara Morefield will compete in the women's 3,000-meter steeplechase semifinal Thursday at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, becoming the first Golden Hurricane woman to race at the national meet in Eugene, Ore., since 2014.
With her runner-up finish at the NCAA West First Round, the Lucas, Texas, native also became the first athlete in program history to qualify for the NCAA Championships semifinal round in the women's steeplechase.
Morefield has rewritten Tulsa's record book this season, recording the three fastest performances in school history in the event. Most recently, she ran 10:00.72 at the NCAA West First Round for the second-fastest time.
The sophomore is set to compete in the second semifinal heat, with the women's steeplechase beginning at 7:38 p.m. CT. The top five finishers from each heat, along with the next two fastest times overall, will advance to Saturday's national final.
The race will be broadcast on ESPN2, with live results available through Flash Results.
