ARCATA, Calif. — Katherine Martinez won the women's pole vault and three other Raiders qualified for the Cascade Conference Championships at the Cal Poly Humboldt Invite on Saturday. 

Martinez cleared 12 feet 5.5 inches (3.80m), winning the event for the second time in three appearances this outdoor season. It's the second-highest mark of the senior's career and her fourth time clearing 12 feet. Sydney Perkins set a new personal best by two inches, vaulting 11-11 ¾ to claim second place and the No. 5 spot on the NAIA performance list.

Two more vaulters also posted CCC qualifying marks and personal bests. Isaiah Sherman cleared 13-0 ¾ and Laurelin Jansen vaulted 9-6 ¼.
