[Women's Indoor Track & Field] Distance Medley finish 5th - Golden Eagles 17th overall

Comments

(Geneva, Ohio) The final event for Cornerstone at the NAIA Indoor Track & Field Championships looked to put a bittersweet ending on the three day competition. Running without All-American 800 meter runner, Julie Oosterhouse, the distance medley barely made the final and on paper didn't appear to be able to finish better than last. Coming off last season's fourth place finish at nationals, expectations were much higher.

"I was more nervous even though there was no expectation," said lead off leg, Jill Louisignau. "I didn't expect anything. We were going to try for better than last, but I wasn't confident, as confident as I should be." Oosterhouse was back in Grand Rapids due to a death in the family. "It took a lot to cope with being 11 seconds slower in the 800 without her," Louisignau said. Senior anchor leg, Julia Contreras agreed, "It was hard without Julie here. It gives me confidence to step up to the line, knowing I can count on her completely."
