DAY ONE RESULTS

DULUTH, Minn. (csssaints.com) – The St. Scholastica men's track & field team took part in the first day of the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference (UMAC) Outdoor Championships on Friday at Malosky Stadium.
 
Event Champions
Frank Cerar (Plainview, Minn./Plainview-Elgin-Millville HS) won the pole vault title for the first time in his career as he edged last year's champion and teammate Wyatt Helgeson (International Falls, Minn./Falls HS) by taking fewer attempts to clear the same height. Both Cerar and Helgeson cleared 12'11.5" (3.95m). For Cerar that was an outdoor personal-best height and matched his personal-best indoor height.
