Anna Schatzle, a Franklin County High School Class of 2019 graduate, posted a top-two finish Saturday to lead the Ohio Northern women's indoor track and field team in the Polar Bear Qualifier hosted by ONU.

Schatzle finished second in the pole vault, setting a new personal-best with a height of 3.72 meters, which ranks fifth in program history.

That mark also officially allowed her to qualify for the NCAA Division III Championships, which are scheduled for this weekend in Winston-Salem, N.C.
Nationally, the top 20 individuals in each event and top 12 relay teams qualify for the NCAA Championships, and Schatzle currently ranks 18th in the pole vault.
