As a two-time All-American and three-time NCAA javelin top-nine finisher, is one of team's top championship performers and Canada's top throwers. Stands as team's javelin returnee (based on 2005 bests) for arguably the nation's deepest javelin corps which features another All-American and a pair of prep All-Americans from 2005. Rejoined the team in 2005 after a redshirt season and her improved quickness from the varied heptathlon training barely effected her javelin marks, and improved her overall health. Redshirted 2004 collegiate season to rest various arm and elbow injuries. Ranks fourth all-time for Ducks with new javelin introduced in ?99 (50.89m, 166-11), and also third in the indoor pentathlon (3,453).

After she redshirted in 2004, donned Oregon uniform again to make her third NCAA trip in javelin (ninth, 152-8) ? seven places better than her pre-meet seed and barely two feet from a third All-America honor. In May stretch run, placed top six in Pac-10 Championships (third, season best 162-8) and also in the West Regional (sixth, 155-9). Opened year with win in Pepsi Team Invitational (156-5) and added top-three finishes in Golden Bear Invitational (second, 158-9) and Oregon Invitational (third, 157-1).

2001-02: All-American (Javelin).
