Wilma Nielsen Off To A Great Start

Redshirt sophomore Wilma Nielsen is off to a great start in the indoor season for the Bradley Braves. In two events, Nielsen has captured school records in the 600m and 800m races. 

Nielsen participated in the Larry Wieczorek Invitational last weekend at Iowa, a select invitational race. The redshirt sophomore was recognized as the Missouri Valley Conference Female Track Athlete of the Week on Wednesday, for her performance at last weekend's invitational. 

This weekend, Nielsen is headed to New York City, New York to participate in the Dr. Sander Invitational Columbia Challenge. She is slated to compete in the Women's USA 1000m Invitational and could look to capture a third school record. 

IU Relays

The Braves will have six student-athletes headlined in the women's division this weekend in Bloomington, Indiana. 

Sophomore Amiyah Davis will run in the 200m and 400m events. Freshman Leah Thames will join Davis in the 200m and will also run in the 60m sprint. 

Juniors Tiana LoStracco and Julia Nielsen will both run in the 800m. 

Sophomore Nicola Jansen and junior Sophia McDonnell will both run in the 3000m. 

On the men's side, just four runners are making the trip. Sophomore Jack Crull will run the 1 mile while the trio of Alec Danner, Charlie Parrish and George Watson will run the 3000m.
