Frary posted season-bests in the 100-meter hurdles, high jump and shot put en route to her point total, which was the best among the nine collegiate entrants.

Nike's Trayce Lawyer, who won two of the day's four events, scored 3734 points to lead the 14-athlete field. Germany's Sabine Krieger and Canada's Nicloe Haynes rounded out the top three spots with 3545 and 3410 points, respectively.

Frary had her best finish in the 200 meters, running a time of 23.90 for the second-best clocking of the day. However, the senior wracked up her highest point total of the event, 971, with her time of 14.05 in the 100-meter hurdles.
