Kayla Wooten ran an NCAA provisional qualifying time of 4 minutes, 31.38 seconds (adjusted from 4:38.01 for altitude) at the Colorado Invitational on Saturday. She time ranks No. 16 in the NCAA Division II performance lists and second in the RMAC. Wooten finished fourth overall and was the top freshman and top Division II finisher among the 36 finishers from multiple divisions.

Wooten was an All-American during the indoor season with a sixth-place finish in the mile run last month. She was the first Mountain Lion in program history to earn All-America honors in that event, and was the first indoor All-American for the women's team since 2011.
