Ceronie’s Comments - “Kate had a good freshman year but came back with an even better sophomore year. It was really rewarding to see her make the indoor finals and finish eighth. It was a great race for her outdoors at the conference meet, and she showed poise and confidence in moving up to fourth place. She will be studying in Luxembourg this fall, so her ability to work out will directly affect how successful in indoors we are this next year.”
