Peckham, Wilson to Compete at National Indoor Track & Field Meet this Weekend

Wilson Named All-Region

by Nathan Baliva

MONMOUTH, Ill. (03/10/2022) —

The NCAA Division III Men's and Women's Track and Field and Cross Country Committee recently announced the participants for the indoor championships, including Monmouth College male pole vaulter Reed Wilson (Normal, Illinois) and female sprinter Jordan Peckham (Farmington, Illinois). The top 20 declared student-athletes for each event were accepted into the competition.

The 2022 NCAA Division III Men's and Women's Indoor Track and Field Championships will take place Friday and Saturday at the JDL Fast Track in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Wilson will vault at 11 a.m. ET on Friday and Peckham will run in the preliminaries at 2:50 p.m. ET Friday. The 60m finals are scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday. The top eight finishers in each event are named NCAA D3 All-Americans.

Wilson qualified at 5.00m in the pole vault, tied for the fourth-best performance among qualifiers. Six competitors have cleared at least 5.00m this season with the top qualifying mark at 5.12m. Wilson won the MWC Indoor Championships in February at Knox and was named USTFCCCA All-Region earlier this week. Last year, Wilson cleared 4.91m outdoors at the Midwest Conference Championships and qualified for the NCAA Division III Outdoor Championships. He didn't clear the opening height at nationals as 5.10m won the national title.

Peckham qualified in the 60m race as the 20th and final seed. She originally set a new Monmouth record in the 60m race at the MWC Championships with a 7.80, then broke her own record last Saturday at the Wartburg Last Chance Qualifier with a 7.76. That result got her into the field and she now olds the three fastest times in school history in the 60m at 7.76, 7.80 and 7.81.

Peckham was an outdoor national finalist last year in the 400m, finishing 12th with a career-best 46.96. She won the 60m, 200m and 400m at the MWC Championships and was named MWC Track Performer of the year. Peckham is the first woman to qualify for indoor nationals since Joanna Podosek in the 800m in 2018. Peckham is the first female sprinter since Constance Jackson in 2001, when the race was 55m.
