After spending the past two years as a graduate assistant with the Memphis Track and Field program, Chrissie Feldmann was named to the staff as an assistant coach in 2011. Entering her first season as a full-time staff member, Feldmann will be responsible for coaching all jumping events, with the exception of the pole vault, while continuing to assist Coach Robinson with the multi-event athletes. Under her leadership in the 2011 spring season, Jerome Leslie and Kirsten Berding were tabbed all-conference selections and were NCAA Regional qualifiers in the triple jump and high jump respectively. Additionally, freshman Darius Lynwood achieved second place at the Conference USA Outdoor Championships in the high jump. In 2010, Leslie made his way to a third-place finish at the Conference USA Outdoor Championships in the high jump and qualified for the NCAA Regionals, while Desiree Blow just missed becoming an all-conference performer in the heptathlon. Feldmann graduated from Marquette in the spring of 2009 with a bachelor's degree in Exercise Science and obtained her master's degree in Exercise and Sport Science at the University of Memphis in May. |
