I thought we had a better team effort than we did at North Central (College First Chance Meet). We're starting to do the things that made us a great team indoors.

I thought about it, but it's a very small college, and I thought I would have a better chance if I went for early decision.

The NCAA made the general public more aware of women's sports. But we still need more opportunities for women in athletics.

When I was in high school, we had track for five weeks my senior year. That was all for women's sports. So, we've come a long way from having almost nothing.

We don't want to lose the outdoor title by a point again.

That puts a different chemistry of athletes in the national championships. You also have a couple of teams that don't do indoor and just compete during outdoor track.
