Congrat to Laura Massey, one of Caroline's vaulters at the UofM
--Laura won Big 10's Friday in the pouring rain!
--She tied her best performance while most of the competition whined about being cold and wet--we could all learn something from her great attitude.

Caroline's girls placed as follows
1st place--Laura Massey
5th place--Andrea Smith
6th place--Ashley Nord

The vaulters scored 16.5 points when they were seeded to score 3
Nice job!
