HELENA, Mont. -- For a second-straight week, the Frontier Conference tabbed Montana Tech's
Kamryn Comba as the women's indoor track athlete of the week.
Comba, a junior from Idaho Falls, Idaho, posted a trio of top-10 finishes last weekend at Idaho's Lauren McCluskey Memorial, highlighted by her NAIA 'B' standard in the 600-meter run. She covered that distance in 1:36.25 to finish fourth in the event. It was the 14th-fastest women's 600m in the NAIA so far this season and less than a second off her program record in the event, which she set at the 2024 indoor national championships.
She also teamed up for a pair of top-10 relay results over the weekend.
Ayla Janzen,
MaKenzie Sheils,
Olleca Severson, and Comba took fifth in the 4x400m relay (4:09.05), and she led off the ninth-place distance medley relay, combining with Severson, Sheils, and
Alyssa Plant to come in at 12:50.49.
Comba won the Frontier's outdoor championship in the 800m last spring and was an indoor national qualifier for the Orediggers in both the 600m and DMR last season. This past fall, Comba was the runner-up at the conference cross country championships and ran to 118th at the NAIA national cross country meet.
Oredigger women's track & field athletes have laid claim to five of the six conference weekly awards so far this indoor season.
Montana Tech's track & field teams will continue the indoor season Friday with a trip to Bozeman for Montana State University's Bobcat Performance meet.
