Indiana Invaders Expand Women's Distance Roster
May 5, 2007
(INDIANAPOLIS) The Indiana Invaders have added steeplechase athlete Stefanie Calhoun to the team's distance roster. Calhoun, a 2005 graduate of Texas Tech University, has a career best of 10:20 in the 3000m steeplechase.

Calhoun, NCAA steeple qualifier in 2005, holds the Texas Tech school record in the steeple. Calhoun finished fourth at the Big 12 Championships in 2005.

Team Director Greg Harger said, "Calhoun has the potential to develop into a strong steeple athlete as she has undeveloped 1500 meter speed. We're going to work with her through the next couple of training cycles >to prepare her to compete at the next level in the steeple."

Harger added, "Calhoun is a good addition to the team. I expect she will challenge to be a scoring member of the cross country team this fall."

Calhoun joins a team that had 16 athletes qualify for both the 2000 and the 2004 US Olympic Trials. Currently, seven Invaders athletes have posted Olympic Trials qualifying marks for the 2008 US Olympic Trials.
