SPOKANE, Wash. – Thirty-six student-athletes will represent the Gonzaga women's and men's track teams at the Idaho Open Thursday. This will be the second of three meets inside the Kibbie Dome for the Zags this indoor season.
 
Gonzaga opened the season at the Vandal Open two weeks ago in Moscow. Aimee Piercy broke the women's 800-meter program record and Dominic Arce cruised to the men's 3,000-meter title. Six Zags placed in the Top-10 in the women's 3,000 meters. Lilly Visser led the GU pack placing third at 10:35.67.
 
In the men's mile, Cobie Chavez-Killinger placed third. The transfer made his debut for the Zags with a time of 4:19.80. Myles Bach was fifth at 4:20.73, while Evan Bates' 4:24.05 finish was eighth. Lauren Krause and Morgan Greene tied for fifth in the women's 400 meters at 61.76. Emilee Groth was close behind in seventh at 64.43. Paxton Depoe (2:20.63) was fifth in the 800 meters, while Claire Gillett (2:25.86) was eighth.
 
Last week at the UW Preview in Seattle, Gillett finished the mile at 5:06.86 in 25th. Her time ranks seventh in program history. Evan Bates crossed the line in first in his heat with a time of 8:18.60 in the 3,000 meters. His time ranks ninth in program history.
 
Six Zags open the meet in the 5,000 meters at 11 a.m. Meet results will be available approximately 30 minutes after the last event.
