PROVO, Utah-This week, Brigham Young University track and field announced their upcoming squad for the upcoming season whenever circumstances allow it to occur.

Among BYU’s other signees is former North Sevier High School multi-sport star athlete Mayci Torgerson.

Torgerson, who has since moved to Cedar City and competed at Cedar City High School, won the 2019 Class 4-A state title in the high jump at the UHSAA State Track & Field championships at Robison Track.

Additionally, while competing for the Wolves, Torgerson was a three-time 2-A UHSAA state champion in various events.
