HELENA, Mont. – Montana Tech and Rocky Mountain (Mont.) were selected to the seventh installment of the 2025-26 Erck Hotels/Frontier Conference Women’s Indoor Track & Field weekly honors, announced by the conference office Tuesday.
Indoor Field Athlete-of-the-Week: Abby Clark, Montana Tech
Clark, a graduate student from Fort Benton, Mont., was named the Field Athlete-of-the-Week.
She won two of the five pentathlon events (shot put and high jump) on her way to a win over primarily NCAA Division I and II competitors at the Riverfront Invitational and Multi’s in Spokane, Wash. Her pentathlon score of 3,576 points ranks her No. 2 in the NAIA and leads the Frontier Conference this season.
Clark produced a new Montana Tech school record in the high jump with a personal record of 1.70 meters (5 feet, 7 inches). Her high jump mark also qualified her for the NAIA national meet with the ‘A’ automatic qualifying standard, tying for fourth best high jump mark in the NAIA.
This is Clark’s third career Erck Hotels/Frontier Conference Women’s Indoor Field Athlete-of-the-Week honor.
Indoor Track Athlete-of-the-Week: Maya Pearcy, Rocky Mountain (Mont.)
Pearcy, a junior from Columbus, Wis., was selected to Track Athlete-of-the-Week.
She improved her NAIA ‘A’ automatic qualifying time in the 800-meter run for Rocky Mountain (Mont.). She clocked a time of 2 minutes, 12.48 seconds in the race at the Carignan Classic, placing third amongst a field of NCAA Division I competition.
Pearcy’s time was adjusted to 2 minutes, 11.75 seconds due to altitude. Her time is the fastest in the Frontier Conference and third in the NAIA.
This is Pearcy’s second career Erck Hotels/Frontier Conference Women’s Indoor Track Athlete-of-the-Week honor.
