08.09.2021 | Track and Field
AMES, Iowa – Iowa State track and field made another addition to its multi-events squad on Tuesday morning, when Director of Track & Field/Cross Country Jeremy Sudbury announced that Jack Vetsch will be joining the program. Vetch has competed the past three seasons at the University of North Dakota, and has two seasons of eligibility remaining in both indoor and outdoor track and field.
"I am very excited to add Jack to our multi-events group that is on the rise," Sudbury said. "Jack comes in with personal bests that make him very competitive in the Big 12 and I am looking forward to seeing what he can do under the tutelage of (Assistant) Coach (Kurtis) Brondyke."
Vetch, a native of Waseca, Minnesota, came in the second at the Summit League Outdoor Championships this past May in the decathlon, posting a personal best score of 7,162 points, a mark that ranked him No. 43 in NCAA Division I in the decathlon during the 2021 outdoor season. During his 10 events, Vetch posted personal bests in the 400-meter dash (50.57), discus (129-3, 39.39m), javeline (179-0, 54.57m) and 1,500-meter run (4:46.45), while also recording all-conditions PRs in the 100m (11.15w), long jump (23-3 1/4w, 7.09mw) and 110-meter hurdles (14.46w).
During the 2021 indoor season, Vetch also claimed silver in the heptathlon at the Summit League Championships, going to a seven-event personal best score of 5,339 points which ranked at No. 38 in NCAA Division I in the 2021 indoor campaign. Vetsch showed his versatility across events, finishing in the top-four of all seven events, including posting personal bests in six of the seven events. At the same conference championships, he also helped the Fighting Hawks' efforts with a seventh place finish in the 60-meter hurdles, an event he owns a PR of 8.21 in.
Vetsch is a veteran of the multi-events, having done three decathlons, seven heptathlons and an indoor pentathlon during his UND career while setting school records in the decathlon outdoors and the heptathlon indoors. North Dakota's decathlon school record stood for 33 years before Vetsch broke it this past May.
