Complete Recap Saint Mary's at MIAC Indoor Championships-A Year Ago: March 6-7, 2015 * Moorhead, Minn.: After breaking three school records during the opening day of the MIAC Indoor Championships, the only question that remained for Saint Mary's was-what are you going to do for an encore? Break some more records, of course.
Brandon Krogman (Owatonna, Minn.) became the fourth Cardinal to etch their name in the record books with his time of 1:25.30 in the 600, breaking the previous mark of 1:26.00 set by Benton Kodet in 2011. And Krogman was just getting warmed up, as the freshman teamed with
Tyler Fiebig (Baraboo, Wis.),
Morris Dennis (Elk River, Minn.), and
Ross Kinderman (Onalaska, Wis.)-both school record-setters on Friday-to rewrite the Saint Mary's record book with a sixth-place time of 3:29.36 in the 4x400 relay |
