DMR Weekend Seeking NCAA Qualifiers
02/20/25 | Track and Field
Friday’s schedule begins at 12:30 p.m. PT with the men’s DMR in Arkansas.
EUGENE, Ore. – A week shy of the conference meet, the Oregon track and field team is sending entries to the Arkansas Qualifier in Fayetteville, Ark., and Terrier DMR Challenge in Boston. In addition to both teams fielding a distance medley relay—the men in Arkansas, the women in Boston—the UO men have entries in the 800 meters and mile.

The Schedule (all times PT)
12:30 p.m. – men's DMR
3:30 p.m. – men's 800 meters
4:45 p.m. – women's DMR
4:55 p.m. – men's mile
The postseason begins next weekend with the Big Ten Indoor Championships (Feb. 28-March 1) at the Fall Creek Pavilion in Indianapolis.
The Men of Oregon have yet to run a distance medley relay this season while the UO women are sixth nationally with a time of 10:48.45 from the Razorback Invitational (Jan. 31). That time led the country before five teams posted faster marks last weekend at the Husky Classic in Seattle.
The current DMR bubble is 9:46.75 for men and 11:02.54 for women with several last-chance meets on tap this weekend.
Additional entries in Arkansas include Elliott Cook, Matthew Erickson, Ben Greene, James Harding and Koitatoi Kidali in the 800 and Evan Bishop in the mile. Erickson, Harding and Kidali all recorded top-10 program marks last week at the Tyson Invitational (Feb. 15). Harding's time of 1:47.39 doubled as the indoor national record for his native New Zealand.
At the end of the NCAA qualifying window which includes the conference meet, the top 16 declared athletes in each event and top 12 relays advance to the 2025 NCAA Indoor Championships (March 14-15) in Virginia Beach, Va.
