Missing Renee Egan. GO TIGERS!! The 2010 edition of the Corwith-Wesley-LuVerne Panther girls’ track squad numbers eight and will be led by four returning senior letter winners to build a strong foundation for the team. Head Coach Beth DeGroote returns again as the head mentor for the maroon-and-white during this spring’s season. “We have put together a nice team with two long distance runners and six sprinters,” said Coach DeGroote. “We have seven returning letter winners and one new girl who is a freshman. “Jessica had been working hard at the discus and we expect her to have a strong senior season. Saundra and Kirsty are welcomed back and Renee is hoping to break the 1,500 mark this spring. “Hillary is a very hard worker and Nicole broke the school record in the 3,200meter run and we look for her to have another strong year. Jessica has been working hard at coming out of the blocks and we are looking for Lauren to fit some where.” There are four seniors on the squad and all four are returning letter winners. Jessica Marty had a strong year in the discus last year and was one of the stronger ones in the conference. Kirsty Riggert returns in both the shot put and the discus and has spent a lot of time in the weight room to get stronger and improve in her events. Renee Egan will be strong in the 800 and 1,500 meter runs and Saundra Vorland will be a returning sprinter for the maroon-andwhite. The lone junior on the team is Hillary Hilbert and she is a versatile runner that could fit in anywhere. Sophomore Nicole Studer set the Corwith- Wesley-LuVerne school record in the 3,200-meter run in a time of 12:11 and will be looking to lower her time in that event this spring. The other sophomore letter winner is sprinter Jessica Lawson. The only non letter winner on the Panther squad is freshman Lauren Chambers.
