The SNC women's track and field began their 2010 season at the UW-Whitewater Invitational and had promising finishes from the usual suspects and some up-and-coming student athletes. First-years Calli Nonnemacher and Danielle Allen each performed well, with Nonnemacher winning the 200-meter dash in 28.44 seconds and Allen earning first place in the long jump with a distance of 5.04 meters. Meanwhile, sophomore Megan Domnick finished first in the 400-meter dash in 1:05.63, and sophomore Emily Schudrowitz won the 600-meter run in 1:34.14. A relay team consisting of Domnick, first-year Andrea Bosman, sophomore Danielle Krause and junior Anne Mueller won the 4x200-meter relay in a time of 1:57.39.
Senior Jenny Scherer, first-year Amanda Whipple and Schudrowitz each had very solid finishes at the Gladstein Invitational at Indiana University in Bloomington, IN, following the Warhawk Opener. There the Knights competed with schools such as the University of Miami (Ohio), Indiana University, Ball State and the University of Cincinnati. Most notably, Schudrowitz qualified for the NCAA Division III Indoor Championship in the 800-meter run. That competition will be will be held March 12-13 in Greencastle, IN. The Wauwatosa, WI, born student athlete is running consistent races and doesn't look to be slowing down. She has also been competing in other events such as the 200, 400, and 600-meter runs.
Following the premier invite at Indiana University, SNC competed at the Northern Michigan University Northern Challenge. There, first-year Lindsay Wiebe won the high jump by clearing1.63 meters. Krause was second in the pole vault, clearing a height of 2.59 meters.
As you can see, the Knights are stacked with underclassmen. Even with the loss of last year's senior and national champion Ashley Graybill, a good group of senior leaders have motivated this talented group of women . Krause mentions that she looks to junior Nikki Swanson and senior Marisa Trakanovich as some leaders on the squad.
