She broke the record of Ashley Simmons run in December of 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Jackson also broke her own school record from one week earlier as she placed second in the 60-meter dash in 7.94 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Along with being new school records, both of Jackson\u2019s times are No. 1 in the North Star Athletic Association for indoor track and field so far this winter.<\/p>\n<p>Jackson\u2019s record-setting performance was not alone, though, as senior thrower Michael Nordby broke the women\u2019s weight-throw record, junior jumper Cameron Newsome broke the men\u2019s high-jump record, Auburn Miller added a win in the women\u2019s shot put, and Justin Jacobi and Isaiah Craig each hit NAIA national provisional qualifying marks finishing one-two in the men\u2019s heptathlon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday I saw some really good glimpses of what is yet to come,\u201d Waldorf head coach Kayla Kregel said. \u201cYes, we are breaking records and putting ourselves in position to be on the award stand, but it\u2019s still the beginning of the special things to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adding to the record-setting day was Jacobi in the heptathlon as he broke his own record in the event, which he set last year at the NSAA Championships, by winning the seven-discipline event with a score of 4,302 points. He bested teammate, Craig, who scored 4,238 points. Both scores are NAIA national provisional qualifying marks and rank the duo 16th and 18th, respectively, in the nation.<br \/>\nNewsome added a runner-up finish in the high jump, clearing 6 feet, 5.5 inches, which broke the old school record set by Craig in January of 2016.<\/p>\n<p>And Nordby finished eighth in the weight throw overall with a new school-record mark of 39-7.75. She broke the old school record set by MacKinze Thill-Urbanek last year.<\/p>\n<p>Nordby also finished fifth in the shot put with a mark of 33-10.75, an event won by Miller with a throw of 38-2.75, just a half inch shy of her own school record.<\/p>\n<p>Other Warrior highlights included Marissa Kuik finishing second in the women\u2019s 3,000 in 11 minutes, 17.61 seconds, the fastest 3K in the conference this winter, while the women\u2019s sprint team followed the standard set by Jackson as Maria Corbi was fourth in the 60 meters in 8.11, Taylor Navratil was fifth in 60 in 8.15, and Corbi was fourth in the 200, as well, in 27.53.<\/p>\n<p>And on the men\u2019s side, sprinter Elijah Cannon was second in the men\u2019s 60 in 7.28, while Carlos Barrera was fourth in 7.30 for the Warriors, and Caleb Berman added a fifth-place finish in the men\u2019s 60-meter hurdles in 9.22.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cProud of today and ready for another week,\u201d Kregel said, looking ahead as the Warriors continue their action-packed, five-week indoor season by competing next Saturday at the Bethel Gene Glader Classic in St, Paul, Minn.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Waldorf Athletics Mike Stetson, Sports Information Director FOREST CITY \u2013 Warrior junior sprinter Kaila Jackson has begun a full-out assault on the Waldorf track and field<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":247,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,23,60],"tags":[185,76,94],"class_list":["post-577","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-naia","category-top-news","category-track-and-field","tag-kaila-jackson","tag-track-and-field","tag-waldorf"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/577","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=577"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/577\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":580,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/577\/revisions\/580"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/247"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=577"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=577"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kentuckysports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=577"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
