Yeargin, who has now been the recipient of the weekly honor twice this season, competed at the SPIRE Midwest Open in Geneva, Ohio, where the Arrows made a big splash with several conference records shattered.
 
Ursuline broke through in the USTFCCCA Midwest Regional Poll ranked at No. 9 and after breaking G-MAC long jump, 55-meter dash, 200 and 400-meter yard dash records, the Arrows continue to make serious noise.
 
Yeargin set new conference records in both the 200 and 400-meter dashes. She ran a 24.53 in the 200 finals, breaking former Ursuline standout Keyana Roberts’ previous record of 25.29 set in 2014.
 
She finished second overall in the 400 with a time of 55.80, edging Cedarville national indoor/outdoor 800-meter champ Carsyn Koch’s 2016 record (56.15).
