AUSTIN, Texas – Kristen Denk capped her junior season as a first team All-American Thursday night at Texas' Mike A. Myers Track.
The North Royalton, Ohio, native cleared 14-3.25 (4.35 meters) to make the top-eight. The mark is just short of her career-best 14-3.5 (4.36 meters).
“Kristen showed her mettle tonight,” said head coach Steven Keith. “She’s a tough competitor. She went to a lot of third attempts, but came through on a couple of clutch third attempts. She scored for the team, we’re really proud of her.”
