FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – North Dakota State junior Erin Teschuk made it look easy on Friday evening, cruising to a new school record and a spot in the national finals in the mile at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships.
 
Teschuk crossed the finish line in 4:34.25, an improvement over her previous school record of 4:34.78 earlier this season. She is the second-fastest qualifier into Saturday's 10-woman final behind Michigan State's Leah O'Connor, who ran 4:34.17 in the prelims.
 
Teschuk now owns the four fastest mile times in NDSU history. This year, she is the fastest Canadian woman in the mile and No. 21 in the world.
 
The national finals of the mile will run at 6 p.m. (CT) tomorrow night inside the Randal Tyson Track Center. Teschuk will also run the 3,000m final at 8 p.m., which she enters with a No. 5 national ranking. ESPN3 is streaming the meet live starting at 5:50 p.m.
