BRIDGEWATER, Mass. -- Bridgewater State University sophomore Grace Inacio will be competing at the 2026 NCAA Division III Outdoor Track & Field Championships.

Inacio qualified in the 100-meter dash.

The national championship meet will be held from Thursday, May 21st through Saturday, May 23rd at the Veteran's Memorial Field Sports Complex in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

Inacio is seeded 21st (tie) in the 100. The Taunton, Massachusetts product posted her qualifying and school-record time of 11.89 seconds on April 25th at the MASCAC Championships.

Inacio was part of the Bears' First Team All-American 4x100-meter relay squad at the 2025 outdoor championships. The quartet, which also included former Bears Kiara Abrantes, Alison McDonough and Jailene Escalera, posted a school-record preliminary time of 46.30 seconds and placed sixth in the finals with a time of 46.33. It marked the first time that BSU sent a women's relay team to the NCAAs.

This past March, Inacio competed in the 200-meter dash at the NCAA Division III Indoor Championships and garnered All-American Second Team honors with a 14th place finish (24.88).

The preliminary race of the women's 100-meter dash is scheduled for Friday late afternoon at 6:20 PM (EDT) with the finals slated for Saturday afternoon at 3:30 PM (EDT).
