Wochnick Earns NWC Track Athlete Honor
Megan
Wochnick started her outdoor season by winning the
PLU Invitational women's hammer throw on Saturday with a NCAA national
meet provisional qualifying mark of 153-2. That performance also
netted her the Northwest Conference Women’s Field Athlete
of the Week honor.
Two week ago Wochnick, a senior from Wilsonville (Ore.) High School,
missed by two inches qualifying for the NCAA Division III indoor
national meet in the women’s weight throw. Her winning hammer
throw on Saturday was well off her personal best of 169-7 set last
year, but was a good start in her effort to earn outdoor track &
field All-America honors. She has previously earned indoor track
& field All-America honors.
