Beavers race way to 4 new school records and 4 wins Saturday at UND Open

GRAND FORKS, N.D. – Four records. Four wins.

Not a bad day competing alongside the NCAA Division I programs in the state of North Dakota.

Devontae Daley led the charge for the Minot State track and field teams as he raced his way to a record with a win for the Beaver men at the University of North Dakota Open on Saturday.

Daley was joined by teammate Devan Daniels in setting a school record on the men's side, while Bailey Wride and De'Andre Cornwall added record performances for the Minot State women.

The Beavers will look to build on their record day next weekend when Minot State competes at another D-I meet hosted by North Dakota State, the Bison Open, on Friday and Saturday in Fargo.

Daley won the men's 300 meters in 35.34 seconds on Saturday, shattering the old NCAA Division II-era record of 36.03 run one year earlier by teammate Francis Short Bull.

Daley also added a third-place finish to his day, clocking a time of 1:58.89 in the men's 800 meters.

Adding to the men's record race was Daniels who finished 11th in the 200 meters in 22.57 as he shaved a few fractions of a second of the previous D-II best of 22.60 run by Tyler Bates in 2015.

On the women's side, Cornwall hurdled her way into the record book as she qualified for the finals and finished sixth on the day in the 60-meter hurdles in 9.05 seconds. Her performance broke the previous D-II record of 9.16 run by DelRay Audet in 2016.

And rounding out the records was Wride in the women's 1,000 meters as she finished second overall on the day in 2 minutes, 59.79 seconds, breaking the old D-II record of 3:04.84 run by Abigail McGee in 2020.

While those record efforts led the Beavers, Minot State also got three more wins as well as Marco Murillo won the men's 1,000 meters in 2:36.80, Jacob Jensen won the men's 5,000 meters in 15:07.20, and Nicole Reeves rounded out the wins by finishing first in the women's mile in 5:21.81.
