Luca Wieland and Jess Herauf of the Gophers both finished first in the two multievent competitions on Saturday in the Big Ten track and field meet in East Lansing, Mich.

Wieland, a sophomore from Saarbrucken, Germany, won the decathlon with 7,635 points. On the second day, his best finish was a second in the discus and a third in the 110 hurdles in four events. But he won four events the first day — the 100, long jump, shot put and high jump — to build a huge lead.

Herauf, a junior from Dickinson, N.D., won the heptathlon with 6,014 points. She took first in three of the seven events: the long jump, javelin and 800. Teammate Alex Beckman placed fourth (5,088).

Nicolle Murphy of the Gophers placed second in the javelin (160 feet, 5½ inches), followed by Rachel Melum and Herauf, who were third and fourth. Devin Stanford and Agnes Esser were third and fourth, respectively, in the discus.

Going into the final day of the meet, the Minnesota women's team is in first place with 71 points — 19 ahead of the host Spartans — and the men's team is second with 38 points, six behind Nebraska.

Gophers' Reilly will be testing the market

Mike Reilly definitely will test the free agent market. The Gophers' two-time All-America defenseman informed the Columbus Blue Jackets, who selected him in the fourth round of the 2011 NHL draft, that he will field offers from other interested organizations, TSN's Bob McKenzie first reported Saturday.

McKenzie also reported that Reilly officially withdrew from school this week, triggering a 30-day countdown until he officially becomes an unrestricted free agent. Reilly, however, said he's still considering signing with Columbus.
