Ceronie's Comment's: "Erin enjoyed a successful junior year and set very high goals for her senior year, in which she was able to accomplish. She has a high level of enthusiasm and will come in and provide a boost in the short sprints and hurdles. Erin's time would have placed in the top six at the MAC meet this year, so we hope that she will be a scorer as a freshman." Personal: Undeclared major ... daughter of Pat and Cathy Connolly.
