Much like her name indicates, Frostburg
State University (Md.) sophomore Sumer Rohrs “"roared"”
through the competition all weekend in the women's
100-meter hurdles at the 2008 NCAA Division III
Outdoor Track and Field Championships.
Just two days removed from setting
a NCAA Division III season's best and J.J. Keller
Field at Titan Stadium record in the preliminaries,
Rohrs, ending in 13.68 seconds, defeated the field
in the finals by .30 of a second for the national
title. UW-Eau Claire senior Liz Faller was second
in 13.98 seconds.
Rounding out the top five, Nebraska
Wesleyan University senior Holly Andrews, a repeat
All-American, was third (14.10), Messiah College
(Pa.) sophomore Kristen Bates took fourth (14.24),
and Monmouth College (Ill.) junior Shannon Turczyn,
also a repeat All-American, was fifth in 14.24.
