Snapping 11-year-old record in winning heptathlon gets
Cardinals' Ashley Dingels MIAC Athlete of the Week honor

Dingels not only earned an automatic berth in the NCAA championships with her school-record point total of 4,641 in winning the MIAC's heptathlon, but she also broke the conference's 11-year heptathlon record in the process.

A record formerly held by the wife of SMU track and field coach Paul Thornton — SMU Dean of Students Julie Thornton.

By clearing 5-5 1/4 — a school record and an NCAA provisional qualifying mark — in the high jump, and adding a time of 15.80 in the 100 high hurdles, a throw of 37-0 1/4 in the shot put, and a time of 26.61 in the 200 during Thursday's first four events of the seven-event competition, Dingels had positioned herself just 25 points behind first-day leader Kim Davis of Carleton.

After Friday's final three events, however, it was Dingels who came out on top.

The SMU sophomore jumped 4.78 meters in the long jump, thre the javelin 29.60 meters, and ran 2:23.30 in the 800 to clinch the title.
