11347

  Maria Bernard of the UBC Thunderbirds delivered a career performance on Friday, April 17 at the Mt. SAC Relays, as she won the meet’s 3,000-meter steeplechase Invitational A race.

The senior from Calgary finished in personal-best nine minutes and 53.71 seconds, and defeated a field of professional and NCAA Division I runners.

Her time is the 10th best in the world this year and third best in North American collegiate track and field.

She capped off the weekend with a second-place finish in the women’s 5,000 meters on Saturday at the Beach Invitational in Norwalk, Calif., crossing the line in 16:33.46.

Bernard now owns the best NAIA times in both the 5,000 meters and the 3000-meter steeplechase, an event in which she is the defending national champion.
