Running for just the second time this season and the first time in the mile run, Kelati recorded a dominating 4:38.73, 4:32.66 converted for altitude. Finishing 7.9 seconds ahead of fellow Lobo Alondra Negrón, the previous Mountain West leader in the event, Kelati registered the second-fastest time run in the NCAA this season.
