Wilson, the local product out of Flagstaff, proceeded to post a mark of 5.30m in the long jump, which placed her fifth in the event. Wilson's mark of 5.30m was just shy of her season-best of 5.33m
In the Pentathlon's final event – the 800m run – Wilson clocked a personal-best time of 2:31.99. The time was almost a second and a half faster than her previous best this season.
