Demo, from El Dorado, Kan., set the Wichita State school record in the pole vault, clearing 13-9.25 at the 2008 MVC championships. She was a member of two league indoor championship teams and three conference outdoor championship teams.
She placed in the top three spots in the pole vault at seven MVC championships and garnered All-Missouri Valley Conference indoor recognition in 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2009, with outdoor honors in 2005, 2008, and 2009.
Demo was an indoor NCAA Provisional Qualifier in 2007 and 2009, and a four-time outdoor NCAA Regional Qualifier who advanced to the NCAA Outdoor Nationals twice. She served as team captain for two years.
The El Dorado High School graduate also excelled in the classroom, achieving a cumulative 3.80 grade point average while majoring in mathematics education and graduating from Wichita State with honors in 2009.
A three-time MVC Scholar-Athlete selection, she earned honorable mention in 2005, and first team honors in both 2006 and 2007. Named in 2006 as a CoSIDA Academic All-District VII honorable mention award recipient, she went on to be recognized with first team honors in 2007.
She was also named three times to the Missouri Valley Conference Honor Roll and twice to the Commissioner’s Academic Excellence list. After her senior season, Demo was selected as the Missouri Valley Conference’s Dr. Charlotte West Scholar-Athlete Award winner.
