Dreher also took 10^th in the shot put (27-02.75) and was second in the long jump (16-09.25) and the 800 (2:23.93). Janay DeLoach, who was competing unattached, won the pentathlon with 4,116 points.

"Katie is fantastic," assistant coach Lindsey Malone said. "She did such an exceptional job at the high jump specifically today. Everyone had their individual events where they had an exceptional PR and Katie's was high jump today. This was just the beginning of what she is going to be able to do this year."
